No bilstein, rancho, or fox lifts available. I want to do a full suspension lift, no blocking in the rear. What are my options?

How do you suppose to lift the rear if not with blocks? I have a Rough Country 4" lift on my truck. 4" up front and 2" blocks in back for a true lift/level.

Springs.

Would help to know what your end goals are, and why you're anti-blocks in the rear.

Are you trying to lift your truck for looks and won't need it to tow/haul? Are you wanting to lift it and tow a horse trailer?

Information.

Not for looks. I will still need it to tow and haul, I live in the mountains, long harsh winters and need to get to work if there's a foot of snow on the roads. Spend most of my time up in the mountains on old, unpaved logging roads. Hunting, camping, shooting guns, and other American ****

Blocks will give you the best ride quality, you go adding leafs back there and the ride will beat you to death. You can always put some air bags back there for extra heavy loads, that way you won't screw up the ride quality.

Aren't blocks purely cosmetic though? And can't they be detrimental to your rear axle with time, especially of you tow, haul, and go off road? Correct me if I'm wrong I really have no idea...just a couple things I've gathered while researching between the two.

If you have a 4x4 it comes with blocks from the factory. The lift kit either stacks on top of or replaces the oem blocks.

They sit between the spring pack and the axle housing. The blocks are what gives the lift in the rear.

You can lift the rear without blocks. Stacking blocks sounds especially stupid if you plan on doing anything other than driving to the grocery store.

I'm just trying to find a lift kit that utilizes springs instead of blocks in the rear

My favorite from past experience. Had 4" BDS on my 02 f250. Rode great.
