Why you need the 2 inch blocks? Just curious...

Also, does your 2wd have blocks now? If yes, what are the measurements?

The reason I ask is that you might be able to find blocks from a 4x4. Just replace your current blocks with the 4x4 blocks. Need to know if you have blocks...because that will determine if you should use the F250 or F350 4x4 blocks. The F250 are just over 2inches...and the F350 just over 3 inches. They list them as 2 inch and 4 inch blocks respectively.

Just some ideas...good luck!

My original recommendation still stands. Go find yourself a set off an F250 or F350 depending the the amount of lift out back you want. Just take the measurements of the blocks. If you go USED, then you will need to purchase longer U-bolts. Because they are not re-usable according to my FORD service manual.

Also, you should use blocks that are from the same configuration as your SD. IE: CC SB, CC LB, SC SB, SC LB, etc.

Good luck...

You'll be fine w/ blocks from a different truck, just find some the height you need. Ford ones would be preferable, but if the height and center pin diameter work then any factory block should work for you. Or a 4x shop should be able to hook you up for around $40, plus probably $25-40 for ubolts. Make sure you get steel blocks, that aluminuim crap is for lowering.

I have 2 inch coil spacers for 2wd F-250/350, I bought them for my dually then took them off before trading, they were on for about 2months, perfect condition.

I don't think the 4x4 coils will work on a 2wd, they are probably too big, but I do have a set off of my 2005 f-250.
