Question Rear Lift Blocks - Best Ones to Buy? - Best Place to Buy?

Would like to raise up the rear of my F-250 at least 1" and possibly 2". Haven't been able to find the part numbers for the stock F-350 4" blocks to replace the stock F-250 2" ones, so I am looking to the aftermarket for either a 3" or 4" rear lift kit that includes everything needed to do this. Would I need just blocks and U-bolts? Would like to get ones that look as close to the factory ones as possible. Which ones should I look for and where is the best place with the best price to buy them?

Have you spoke to Tomahawk about buying his no longer needed blocks?

Turns out they are not for sale.

Looking for either a 3" or 4" aftermarket rear lift kit that includes everything needed (U-Bolts and Blocks), as well as the best place with the best price to buy them?

Also looking for the Ford Part Numbers for the 4" F-350 Blocks and associated U-Bolts.

Did you end up putting blocks in? If so, what did you end up doing?

i was curious about this too. i was thinking of different ideas that would hide the horrible 'squat' of the F250 and was wondering if the bigger blocks would work. if u do this, please post ur results

I posted in another thread here an update. I am likely going to do the Pro Comp add a leaf...it will be cheaper than ordering the F350 blocks and bolts from the dealer.

I have an Icon leveling kit on order and they have rear 3" and 4" blocks available and U-bolts as well, they look similar to stock with the bump stops. I ordered through KLM Performance.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but does anyone have experience with the Skyjacker rear blocks? They're really inexpensive and seem like they'd do the job.
