No all the blocks do is raise up the rear. If your lookin to beef up go wit add a leef kit. Leefs will add about 2"

I was just figuring the blocks would just not let the rear sag and have the nose in the air if I hauled something

Sorry I should clarify I was under the impression that with the 2.5 up front and the 1.5 blocks in the rear it would be level and hauling something it would still set pretty level I don't haul much but on occasion I do

2.5 up front will bring the front level with the rear...if you add bigger blocks to the rear the truck will no longer be level,,,it all depends what you want...
