1-1/2" blocks are maximum or you'll have to go bigger diameter wheels or of course 4" drop springs.
It's a safety issue should you ever have a tire blow, the trailing arm would contact the pavement and not the rim, and when that happens you skid uncontrollably like a skateboard on ice ...

Yeah same thing if an airbag blows on a truck that can "lay frame". I've been witness to that.
