Yes DJMDirect the rear w/o isolators is just about a 5" drop.
Before I needed an inch to level it out on both sides when compared to the front. Now the front need about an 1" to get on the same level with the rear. And beore I had about a 3.5" drop with Pedders.
I don't know if it matter sor not but I rub pretty bad in the rear with stock wheels/tires, and all the other 4" guys with Belltech don't so that tells me something somewhere?

your doing a 5 inch drop plus the bumpstops are cut correct. all it is is trucks sitting lower which in turn gets you down a lot faster.

5 inch mcgaughy springs did the same on 8 of them ive lowered so far.

What do you mean by gets me down alot faster?
I do have my bumpstors trimmed slim, but may trim them slimmer or remove them completely, should I?
Will it ride better?

the djm rear springs area 4 inch drop taking off what you ddi gave you more. 1 inch lower means 1 inch less travel. ie will bottom out faster. You can try to remove them completly or running the energy suspension low profile bumpstop on the frame.
