[bears4x4]

12:37 am sat-sun ,i just installed a 6" lift on the front, the block they sent me for the rear are the same size as the ones i have on it, i do have ladder bars to install too,

But do i install the blocks they sent me with the one i have together, double stack - two blocks together ????? the u bolts they sent me are long enough to do so and i have 1" left for the nuts to go one but my friend and i are at a debat on this, is it right, safe?? the insructions dont say????.

Rough counrty 6" lift rear bocks with ladder bars.
My truck looks like its about to take off for lift off at the air strip????
I need to have the truck on the road again for monday to go to work

I don't have an answer, but two blocks does not seem right or safe. I would call Rough Country and talk to them. Use one block for now, so you cam use your truck.

You definitely should NOT stack blocks!

This is it so far??? any ideas, i know this isnt right, i have a small ladder and a tote with light stuff in it, no heavy weight in the back

Definately NO lift block stacking, no if ands or buts, or you will lose the rear axle outta your truck on acceleration! You've got a bad situation because you need the truck, but you don't have all the parts you need to complete the install. You either need a new spring pack to go with your new blocks( lift springs) or you have to much lift for the front. Was your truck level before the lift install, or was it down in the front? Maybe if the truck was not level, your kit is designed to "level" the truck while lifting it at the same time, not really requiring that much lift in the back? Somethings up, get a hold of the people you bought it from and ask them, but NEVER STACK BLOCKS, even if they tell you too! If that is what rough country wants you to do, then you want a new lift kit!

tires are coming up this week, wheels have

Bear , My thoughts on that is the blocks they sent you are for a add-a-leaf or a spring replacement lift not a add-a-block. I agree with the collective that stacking blocks would be catastropic and ruin your truck time. Call the supplier or Rough Country on Monday cause that ain't right!!!!!!

truck is driveable so Im calling in the morning, this is a pain in the butt

OK so went and bought larger blocks to go with the ladder bars, well i unhooked the shocks and u bolt and lowered the rear end but it separated only a inch form the leafs and stopped, the only thing i didn't unhook was the rear anti sway bar but would that really stop the rear end from lowering like that, am i missing a drop bracket for that???

 

[DaveBen]

The only thing I can think of would be the brake line going to the rear end. It goes to the center section, if I recall, and might hang up the rear axle.
