Ride height and tire question

Hey guys so I have a 77 stepside with a 3" lift kit I believe and 33" in tires on 15s. I want to remove the lift kit and put stock tires back on so I can have it T stock ride height. I haven't really worked on truck suspensions as I hate it, so what would I need to remove and replace? I have seen spacers on all 4 corners but is there anything else?

Sounds like lift blocks, if they are in the front I'm pretty sure that is illegal and it sure as **** isn't safe. Just remove those and install factory u-bolts.....
