While I don't like the idea either, my 78 has 2 3" blocks on the rear axle from the P.O.. I just spent the weekend off-roading and rock climbing with it and they held up just fine. In fact, I've been driving it that way for years. You do have to make sure the u-bolts are tight. Mine were loose on one side and the rocking of the axle bent the perch on the axle tube. I tightened it down a few times and beat the heck out of it with no problems.
That being said, I plan to remove the extra block and flip the rear shackle to make up for it.
