Thanks! 
No rubbing... plenty of room in the rear. The front comes a little close to the plastic in the back but no contact yet. I'll just heat up/bend them out of the way if it becomes a problem.
I replaced the 5200# coils up front with 6000# ones and swapped the rear 2" blocks for F350 ~4" blocks.

In all honesty, what do you gain with the swap of blocks to those in the 350's? I have a '06 250 V10 with the snow plow package. Will it do anything on height??Or make my truck unlevel when empty?

The F250 blocks are approximately 2" and the F350 are about 4". So you'll gain 2" with the swap... My truck sat pretty much level stock (~1" rake) and dead level (that looked funny) with 6000# coils up front until I swapped in the F350 blocks.

Sweet lookin ride there - very nice. Explain to me, however, why I am sitting in Iowa under 12" of snow, and you are in Alaska, with your rig parked on, oooh, 1/4" of snow?
How the hell does that work....?
Nice ride akford......
