Another rear block question.

Already did a write up on the superlift blocks I installed. Being as its so straight forward on how to do it, I never once looked at the instructions online. Reading all these instructions makes it seem like there 4 inch block is just supposed to mount on top of the 2 inch stock block. Well to me, that doesnt seem to be the safest way, but there stating that the bar that sticks out from the stock block limits the amount of travel that the axle has. All this is coming from thinking to much after the u-bolts they sent were to long to just replace the 2 inch with there 4 inch.

So the question, am I supposed to just stack this on top of the stock rear?

If I need the extra I may, but I bought 4 inch to replace my existing 2. Just thinking after install, with the length of the bolts they sent, they intended for me to.
