If you have a 4x4 your blocks are 1 5/8 tall right now. Autospring sells there brand of 3 inch blocks on ebay for the 4x4 for around $120.00

But if you have a 2wd you just need the 1 5/8 block

Speaking of this, does anyone know if the oem 2" blocks that come factory equipped on 4x4 trucks will fit on a rwd F150? I called Ford and my local Ford dealer and no one could give me an answer. Doesn't seem too likely that the leaf springs would be different.

Anyone have any ideas?

did anyone else notice he had the 3" levelling kit installed?

take that out and put a 2.5" or 2" in and i think youll be alright. the 3" is bad on ball joints.

Cool. Thanks. I spoke with my local Ford dealer and they go for $58 per block. Would oem or something like the following be better? http://www.readylift.com/c-144-new-f...block-kit.aspx

Yeah true. I probably wouldn't buy his only because I can get them for only $3 more at my local dealer and not have to deal with shipping. The link I posted comes with U bolts so that might be the best deal. Thanks for your time.

On a side note, why is this one so cheap? (comes with blocks and U bolts). http://gmostore.gmotion.com/store/me..._lower_springs

his were $55 for both i believe. also another idea, go to a truck shop and ask them for some stock blocks and u-bolts they have laying around from a truck they recently lifted. the shop who did my lift kept my blocks
