Default Rear block?

hi i Have a 2wd 05 f150 the I put a 2.5 inch leveling kit on and I think it looks great for the most part but I'm thinking it may have been a little too much my front end sits too high now so I'm thinking about adding a rear block just like one inch nothing big and I'm wondering if that could potentially cause any problems any help will be appreciated

Nope, you wont run into any problems by adding a block to the rear since you dont have one as it is. You will most likely need longer u-bolts but thats it.

like 06150 said, all you will need is some longer u bolts. I believe the 4x4's come stock with an 1" block.

The 4x4's come stock with a 2" block, and Readylift makes a 1.5" block for 2wds.

As long as you tighten everything back properly you're good. Its a pretty easy install also
