I try telling people to go with a lift that doesn't use blocks but no one seems to listen. I guess they'll have to find out the hard way.

No not as bad. They will, but for every inch of block, there is a multiplication factor that causes the axle to wrap even more. It's like a cheater wrench...the longer the handle, the more leverage you have to loosen the nut....

Well after what happend Friday night. I'm having a custom driveshaft made. Going to be longer for the lift and also going to be made stronger. Tomorrow going to a shop and talk to them about some custom 10 in heavy duty 9 leaf lift springs that way I can eliminate all blocks and get 8in in the rear and just use shims to get the right angle. Then once those are on going to order ladder bars. Going to eliminate all my problems.
