2.5 inch leveling kit on 04 f250, rear blocks??
I put a leveling kit on my 04 ford f250. Definitely took care of my front end sagging problem. Truck looks good but the back seems to be a little lower than the front and was wondering if I should install rear f350 blocks on it? And if I do what size to go with it? I found 4 inch rear blocks online but wondered if those would be too tall on it? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

I did it, works great. I did 4" blocks with tabs welded on the mimic the bump stop tangs on the OEM blocks, with OEM u-bolts. Re-used my stock nuts and kept the original shocks.
I ended up removing them because I removed the front 2" leveling kit I did (next set of tires cleared without the leveling kit). I would recommed getting the correctly tapered blocks. I didn't have any problems, but I guess long term it could cause pinion or driveshaft u-joint issues if you use the wrong set.

This should be what you need for the rear for the F-350 blocks.
