all you guys thanks for helping out ��
The Baja Kits lift spindle I posted is a 4" lift spindle. I have a 2 1/2" level with 33's. An extra 1 1/2" would look really nice. I'd lift the back too if I did that. STock 1 1/2" rear blocks for a 4wd would bring you level with the 4" spindles.

The stock 4x4 rear blocks, which are 1 1/2". probably should have called them blocks. Guess the way I put it was confusing. That's what can happen when you internet while tired.

I have oem blocks from a 2005 4x4 on my 08 2wd. They measure exactly 2", not 1 5/8".

I think maybe 1 5/8" came on 06-08 and 2" came on 04 and 05's.

That's what I've seen people say the stock blocks were. (1 1/2") I don't have one myself to verify, mines a 2wd. Maybe the people I saw talking about them were referring to a different year.

1 1/2" are the stock block size for 09-14 4x4's.

My trucks sit's about a half inch higher in the front and then it does the back since I put Bilstein 5100 shocks on it.

I wouldn't mind but in 2 inch rear blocks on my 06.

Where did you get yours?

Thanks

Well never mind, I've already got 2 inch blocks on my 06. Just went and measured them.

So I may try to go with 3 inch blocks on the rear of my truck. That would put a half-inch of rake in it.
