Icon sells some. You should ask up in the sponsor section and see if anyone has some available. You can also just do spring spacers. I made my own 2.5" spacers out of billet aluminum, been holding up for over 50k miles.

I have a 2" leveling kit but there is a 4 1/4 inch difference from front to rear so I need 2 more inches to get the truck leveled out

Yeah something doesn't add up there.

A 250 usually has smaller blocks in the rear than the 350. Stock F250 rear blocks are like 2 5/8" tall, and stock 350 blocks are around 4" or a hair under. See what blocks you have in the rear. Usually when doing a standard 2.5" leveling kit up front on a 250, you need to add the 350 blocks to make it level, or the front will sit higher than the rear. Something isn't adding up here.

Also, you should NOT be stacking anything, one block or one spacer only, don't stack two blocks up.
