Default Question About Rear Lift

I have 1992 F150 and I want to lift the rear about 2 inches. The front sits a good bit higher than the rear and I just want to make it a little more level. From what I can see the rear already has a 3 inch block. Would it just be as simple as buying a 5 inch block and longer u-bolts or does any thing else need to be changed?Also could you point me to a website to buy all the right parts from. Thanks

Is the front stock? If there is a 2" difference with 3" blocks I would look into getting new springs or an add a leaf. My truck has an add a leaf and what I believe are 2" blocks and the rear sits higher then the front.

What you suggest will work, but a 5" block is pretty high, stability wise.
You would be better to check pricing at a spring shop, they may be able to offer an affordable solution.
Rear springs are easy for them.
