Re: ?Rough Country?
In my opinion, the only reason blocks ever come loose is if the u bolts are loose. Thats what the alignment pins are there for. I have seen some wierd stuff on some real high horsepower mud trucks around here (stacked blocks, real big blocks ect) and I've never seen one come out.
I will say though, any block over 4" and your gonna get into axle wrap, so some sort of ladder bar is a must or you'll have problems with U-joints. Lynn |

Re: ?Rough Country?
Glad to hear it. I was thinking on running 2'' blocks with a 2" body lift to get some 33s or 35s under the 64.

Re: ?Rough Country?
the biggest problem with aftermarket blocks is what they are made of : ALUMINUM!!! stock ones are usualy cast steel. the problem with them shifting comes from failure of the soft aluminum dowel. stick with steel. its what the rest of your truck is made of. if your like to launch spring wrap will a problem. my 71 jimmy with no lift whatsoever hopps like crazy on the street when i dump the clutch. stiff springs ride rough in a swb and i dont plan on hauling anything or rock crawling so im planning on the 4" softride kit with a ladder bar. good for day to day and will look good with 35s
