Rear block change

I need to change my rear blocks. I know I have to take off my RAS and lower shock bolts. Anyone know if you have a Hellwig do you have to loosen it and remove from the axle?

Are you replacing blocks? Going to a larger size? or just removing all together?\

Edit: If you want the 4" blocks check out this thread. Keep in mind there are two different part numbers based off chassis length.

I'm changing from the standard 2 inch blocks to some 3 1/2 inch F 350 blocks I have. I went v code in front. Keeping my rears since I have RAS and a Hellwig. It's just a little down in the back--maybe 1/2 inch or so

Thanks for the link!
