Need a quick answer to a question about the new lift kit

I have my 4 inch skyjacker lift on except ... I bought the new springs 6 inch in the rear and the box kit came with a 2 inch block now the guys who are installing the springs seem to think the block should go in .... I don't think it does..... anyone know for sure ????? thank you

I think you will need the blocks if you got 4" up front. Or leave them out and wait a couple years for it to level up.

Mine sits near level with 3" in front and 6" Skyjacker sans blocks in the rear.

Put the truck back on the ground to put the driveshaft in. when the springs flatten out some the rear will go back and the drive shaft will go right in. I had the same problem on a gas truck i did one time.
