I just ditched my 2" level kit and removed the back blocks (4x4). They are 1.25" thick. Not perfectly level but that's not want I wanted anyway. 3/4" difference between the front and rear fenderwells. Sorry no pics as I waiting for my 275/55/20 All Seasons to replace the 305/50/20 Coopers Zeons; gas is just to dam expensive
