4" blocks with u-bolts

Could somebody tell me where I can find 4" blocks with the u-bolts? I just got the 2.5 level kit. And on the back need about 2-2.5 higher. I've seen a couple 4" but they dont have the bolts. And when did blocks and bolts become so expensive? Thanks

So you leveled the truck, but still want the factory rake back?

No don't want that. I tow everyday. I also have a heavy topper and 4 deep cycle battery's, tools and so on. I wanted to do the front first so I know what I needed for the rear.

Why dont you just add a leaf spring? It sounds like your always putting a bunch of weight on your truck so just add a spring to your leaf package it may work out better for you than a new block.

You can find a bunch on them online also, I bought mine off ebay. It pretty straight forward for install I did need a torch though to get some bolts off that were rusted other than that no problems, im sure if you did some searching on here you will find a whole bunch of people who had talked about installing them.

Lift Blocks

Fat Bob's Garage has 4" lift blocks that look like OEM, but you need to find the u bolts I think he might sell them to. I have to research it. I'm thinking of buying them myself instead of add-a-leafs.
