Check out buxton91 he use to have that setup and so did I but don't have any old pics since I had it with a body lift. You can run 33s with that setup though. Just get the right backspacing on the wheels.

Here is a pic of mine when I had 3.5" spindles and a 1.5" daystar level. The rear was lifted with 3" blocks. I was running 33's and they rubbed the inner fender with my 10" wide wheels, but with an 8" wide or a +offset you shouldn't have any problems.

Will a spindle lift LEVEL the truck out or is the spindle lift too much and will make the back lower than the front?

A 3.5" spindle will make the front sit higher than the rear. That's why most people put a block in the rear to level it out.

It takes about 2" to level so you'll be sitting 1,5" high or so in the front.
