    I am purchasing the 6inch RC lift kit, I am also getting the RC leaf springs. I am thinking of getting 2inch lift blocks in the rear. Would that be enough to match the height of the front? I am aware that the kit comes with 4 inch blocks but I think that will make the rear too high.

    Is this a drop bracket or just spacers?

    Don’t know. This is a forum for upgrades and repairs, not rough country blocks

    Typically the kits level out perfectly, I encourage you to read up on here. The more you spend on a 6" lift, the better the results. So front coil overs and rear springs make for a much better experience than blocks front and rear.

    Exactly what I was thinking, all I’ve found on the leaf springs were the ones from arcan. I haven’t seen any threads about the correct aal and how it makes the rear sit. I’m going with the the rc because it’s pretty affordable for me and it is a drop bracket kit, comes with new crossmembers and adjustable shocks.
