Yes, I will be putting a solid axle under the truck with the RSK. What I'm asking is can I use hangers between the the RSK and springs in order to gain more lift?
I do not under stand what "hangers" you are referring to?
The spring bolts DIRECTLY to the RSK in the front and the shackle goes between the stock hanger and the spring

What look is that ? The popular one in the Mexican community? Please explain
Yes. I put a set of RuffStuffs in my bronco to do away with the block.
They do not recommend using them for towing situations though.
I noticed it made the bronco actually ride better with the shackle flip in. It must make the springs flex differently
I wish PMF made these but the RuffStuff looks very strong. Would you consider this for one of your towing trucks? Loosing the block would help axle wrap, overall height would be basically the same?
This is one of my favorite threads...lots of good information and great pictures!

has a pmf 2.25 kit with super-duty u codes
a ready lift 5 inch block in the rear to replace the stock 4 incher
Your truck looks great! Assuming your actual tire measurements are close to their numbers, do you think you have room for a tire that was about an 1" taller? (2" overall.)

definitely think they would fit no issue. only reason im not is i dont have cash layin around to regear my axles
On a perfectly leveled truck, are the front and rear fender openings the same height?
I see height measurements given as 'center of hub to fender' or 'ground to fender'. My rear measures only 1-1/2" higher than the front but it looks like more.

NO. The front is ALWAYS more since you have more wheel movement So they put larger wheel openings.
I know this is regular cab thread but I have found the information very useful and thought I'd share my experiences.
Here is my truck with new B codes and 4" block in the rear, and F350 springs that have some sort of helper leaf with them on the D60 in front.
Front dimension is 24" center of hub to the fender, 19" shock length and the rear measures 25-1/2", didn't measure the shock length. Tires are 265.
Closer view of the front with the 265s.
Same view but with 37x2.5x16.5 tires. The measure about 36" left to right at the lugs. These are worn to 12/32", I believe new is 19/32? The wheels are 16.5x9.75 with 4-1/2" of backspacing. (I think that is the correct term.)
Though the front springs are cushier than the D50 TTB they don't really flex too much. I suspect the U codes I plan on using will let the tires travel more. Doing circles in the parking lot, lock to lock, forwards and reverse, there is no rubbing on the leaf springs, rear fender or fender corner. After these pics were taken I installed used Bilsteins up front and they made such a difference that I feel much better about their price and will be getting new ones after the RSK.
