Measure the pads and see. I think it's the right one.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

I don't think those are going to work. It say's for leaf springs, it will have locating pins that won't sit right with the axle mounts. The blocks you need are flat bar stock with 2 holes drilled in them. See my example below. These I made to fit mine. Also check in the FAQ's I know there is a post in there on how to build them. Cpp, EEC, Perhaps Bell Tech may sell the right kits.

Re: Lowering Block Kit- Will this work

From everywhere I was checking I couldn't find a full kit for them. I'd rather just pay a little more than having to drive from place to place and get u bolts made and 3" tube bar cut... oh well!

Thanks!

Just check with some of the aftermarket supplyers. Block kits are made for these trucks.
