So when the kit says its a 2" rear lift block. Does that mean the block is 2" or its 2" over stock?

That means the block is 2". So you will be gaining .75" of rear lift on a (4wd) (and if you have a (2wd) you'd be gaining the full 2" because they don't have a factory block.)

So weird how people are nose high... I have the 2 inch HBS and stock rear everything. Still has a slight rake to it and looks great. Bummer you guys had to drop dough on something for the rear too.

I havent measured mine. But i bet its sitting high in the rear, but because of the body lines, it appears to be nose hi. Also when i tow my race trailer, it really sags, so im just trying to get it where i want it at. Now if i could only find a set of raptor rear blocks used.

You can kind of see the rake of my truck in my sig pic. Perfectly level ground.

So i still havent found a factory raptor lift block or a block setup to lift the rear of my truck. If my truck currently has a 1.25" rear block stock. A 2" block would work great.
