Yes. But if you ever want to go 35's, you will need a 4" lift. And some sort of steering correction. Steering arm the cheapest for GM solid axle fronts. That 2.5" square tube lift block has your truck sitting at about the same height the spring lift you are considering will put it at. If you want it much higher than it is, or any really, consider the 4". With front and rear springs. And the steering arm.
