08 FX4 Rear 1" Low... Block Question???
I did a Skyjacker 6 inch lift and added a 2 inch spacer to the front. As a result, my rear sits one inch low. I installed the aal that came with the kit. I do not want to install another aal. Its stiff enough as is.
My question is about blocks. The stock 2 inch blocks have bump stops. Are there any 3 inch blocks I can purchase that have bump stops? If not, could I stack 1 inch blocks (not my ideal situation)? Do I even need the bump stops? I cant imagine ever making my truck bottom out, but you never know? Also, where should I buy my new blocks from? Thanks guys!

best bet is contacting Fabtech or a known Febtech distributor. They make both a 3" rear lift block and a 5" rear lift block. These REPLACE your factory lift blocks. It is VERY unsafe to stack any sized blocks. Also, you may not think your going to use the bump-stop, but its better to have it and not need it, then need it and not have it. 99% of the time you wont use it, but that one time you do, you'll be glad you have it. Fabtech makes some quality lift blocks. Check em out.
yes, definately do CRJ pilot. They are heavy duty steel, painted black. I can nab a pic of mine later tonight if you want (at work and didn't drive the truck today)
