    It'll be the same width as the leaf springs. Grab a ruler or tape measure and measure the leaf springs ....I'm gonna guess and say its 2.5".

    Are you choosing the blocks over some other sort of lift? If so, why?

    :rolleyes:

    The guy asked one question.

    Do we really need to 'question' his thought process & decision to use blocks?

    Yeah, I thought about mentioning something too - but decided againest it. Afterall, we don't know the whole story.

    Sorry man... Didn't mean to come off harsh.

    With this and people dissin' in the for sale threads...

    Just imagine if you were asking a question like that and people come in and doubt your decision process (so to speak)
