Quick lift question!
K got my dana 60. Going to clean it up and paint it and throw it in. I would like to get a RSK aswell. So ive been reading up and was told if i get a 4" RSK i can put 4" F350 blocks out back and get a level 4" lift all the way around.....this true? If so what year truck do i get the 4'' blocks from? Thanks

I gather it does level out closely. I know depending on what type of front suspension you have going on up front (250hd, or 350) can differ slightly. As for the rear blocks, you can use models as early as 89 and up.

Yup, the 4" rear blocks are going to be ideal for leveling out yours.. Its what I had to mine when I used the 250hd springs and RSK. I was amazed at how much lift came from that! You will need to see about getting longer U-Bolts for the rear axle, unless you find them on the 350 somewhere, but just in case, FTE safety reminder is to "not re-use U-bolts, technically we are to get new ones", LOL! You could also go to your local steel supply shop and "home make" some blocks as well if you cant find em!
