1" Blocks?

I've decided to add the X-Springs to my F250 4x4 when it comes in from the factory (unfortunately, I wasn't aware of the Snow Plow Package when I first put the order in). I don't need the X-Springs for anything other than leveling the truck out a bit. I don't want it to be too level, though, and was thinking of adding 1" blocks to the rear. Anybody know if they even make 1" blocks? Would I have to have somebody other than Ford do this for me? Do you think this would make much difference in appearance? Thanks.

With the X springs in the front and the factory 2" block in the rear you should be about 1" to an 1"1/2 higher in the rear.

Not sure on the one inch block, Iv'e seen 2".

I think I have a pic or two in my gallery with my stock X springs and 35" tires on it. I beleive the **** was a tad taller.

They do make 1" blocks, I have them on my truck. The 4x shop that lifted my truck ordered them for me.

Do you mean replace the stock 2" blocks with 1" or add 1" blocks to the 2" making a 3" block?? I'm not sure how that would work. But, I ordered the plow package with mine (x-springs) and believe me for a non-lifted truck it sits up there. My truck sits ever so slightly higher in the back than in the front and I'm really happy to have the plow package. The only thing that sucks is that I will actually use it to plow.
