Default One of those rear block threads..

Best bang for your buck 3" rear blocks for 2wd? Gimme some suggestions. Every time I find some they say four-wheel-drive only. What's the deal on nat?

Come someone school me on the bump stops? I'm trying to check out online. I have enough to purchase the pro comp 3" rear blocks with no bump stops but I also see the ready lift 3" blocks with bump stops that are slightly more expensive. How much better is having bump stops?

like most other times in life, it is better to do it right once, the first time.

if you're set on using blocks... and 3" blocks at that, wait another pay check or two and get bumpstops.
keeping in mind "lifts" often incur a few added costs, shocks, u-bolts, possibly extended brake lines, etc.

I know at least a few members have the F150 OEM 4x4 blocks on their 2WD. I can't remember if those were 3" or not but may be worth looking into it? Could probably order it from Tasca Ford for a reasonable price.

OEM 4x4 blocks are 1.25". That's how much my FX4 dropped when I took them out anyways.
