For all with you with a Rize 8" lift...

I have a fabtech 6" lift so basically I am putting up a 2" AS level kit up front but as for the rear I now have a 5 inch block from fabtech included in my kit. In the Rize 8 inch kit it seems that all it is block (I am assuming its a 7" block). They seem to be good as I have seen or heard any complaints. I just hear so much about axle wrap and so on but I just want the easiest way to get a full 8" in the back. I was thinking lift shackles or AAL but the actual numbers compared to the numbers they advertise are always off. Any input?

david (fx4 for life) used the pro comp lift block, a 5" lift block to get his rear lift i believe.

i had my rear block and an AAL and sat about an inch lower in the rear than him. he was a tad *** high at 8"

Do you have any issues at all with this setup?

I have never heard of axle wrap with the rize blocks, but thats not to say it hasnt happen. You can either do the rize blocks with a 2" all or go all out with 8" leaf packs for that smooth as butter ride!
