cutting a 3in BL to 2 inches

remove blocks, chop inch off. then what? will the bolts the kit came with still work? the shift extension? bumpers? im either cutting it or taking it off completely. BLs suck. so do coil springs.

i already have a 3 inch on there. why buy a new one? esp since i really dont want it anyway.
ive hated them for a while, they jsut dont seem safe to me. although ive never heard of any problems with them. and my front bumper looks messed up, i just cant get it on straight at all.
