jw is there an easy way to take lift blocks out of a truck cause i got stacked blocks and want it to sit lower in the back since it sits higher now and its got factory blocks and another 2 inch block stacked on top of that i was jw if there is an easy way to take them out

 

good call, stacked lift blocks are baaaad. I don't know of any shortcut but my tip is to remove the lower shock bolts before you start.

 

yeah ive been wanting to take them out since i got the truck cause it sits a inch higher in the back and the blocks are 1 1/2 inch so it will sit a 1/2 inch lower in the back

 

You have two options, measure the stacked blocks and buy a solid 4 inch block on E-bay or what not, or buy some Pro-Comp springs and leave the blocks on the garage floor like I did.

 

Well, the easiest way is to jackstand your frame and remove your wheels, then just start to ease off the U-bolts a little at a time for each side, you may need to disconnect your shocks. If you bring all your U-bolts loose at the same time and the axle is still on the springs take a Dead-Blow and smack the axle to drop it as the pins are sticking. If you have enough U-Bolt, you can loosen them enough you can slide one of your blocks out or you may have to slide both out and separate them if they rusted together. Then just start tightening the U-bolts back up. Torque them down, and then check them every day for a weeks to make sure they are still torqued. If you don't have enough U-Bolt to drop the rear end enough then get a car jack under your 3rd member to let the axle down slowly (And then I would suggest only doing one side at a time, keep the other U-bolts loose but not off, they suck to lift back up to the springs by yourself, even with a friend it's not fun.

Other than that I would suggest as Karls03 said and get some 4" blocks or new springs to replace it with. With it sitting lower though you may get a real weird looking Squatting appearance if you have anything in the back of the truck.

I saw a '77 flatbed Ford once (Actually, the guy still has it, I know where it sits) that had 2-4" blocks stacked in the back to get an 8" lift because the springs had gone flat. But it was an old farm truck. Still funny though.
