1-2 inch lift block for rear??????

Where can I find a 1 to 2 inch lift block ( i want the rear to sit up 1-2 inches higher daystar makes it look higher in the front) for the rear axle and would stock shocks still be okay? Is there enough threads on the u-bolts or would I need new ones?

Thanks.

I'm getting rid of my 2" rear blocks and longer u-bolts as soon as my shorter 2wd u-bolts show up, I also have a 2.5" autospring spacer I don't need. Shoot me an e-mail if your interested, I'm in the Cleveland Ohio area BTW.

I couldn't find one so I just ordered a skyjacker add-a-leaf. 1 1/2 inch lift. Damn thing is on back order and won't ship till 2/22.
I put the 2" AS levelers on front last month and really like the height, just need to lift the back some now. Back looks too low being leveled.
Next, new tires.... when will it end!

Craig, do you have a 2wd or 4wd?

If you have a 4wd, I'd look into getting an add-a-leaf.

I wouldnt stack. If you are going to buy the 2" block you mine as well buy the 4". You are going to need new u-bolts on either on too.
BTW: My 2" FX4 blocks are up in the classifieds section along with my FX4 wheels.

abadf150.... If you have a 2WD I think you will need to change out the rear shocks to fit the 2inch blocks. Ive read where some have added the blocks and the rear shocks were topping out and making the ride a rough one.
