Good eye, that's exactly what I got

Didn't like that the install makes you stack the blocks in the back, but they haven't caused any trouble. I installed it with a friends, took 4 hours using a lidt

Y'all must have done it pretty well and quickly. Mine will have to be in the shop 2 days to get it done with the other mods. Glad to hear you've had good luck. The local guy I'm using installs pretty much just their stuff since he's had good luck with them.

I've noticed a lot of the lifts require replacing the rear blocks or stacking them is there a safe way to get the same lift with the stock blocks?

I'd prefer to have straight up suspension when I lift but is seems everything is blocks and spacers now
