Lift blocks

Is anyone running lift blocks? I've always used blocks in my trucks but never in the bronco. I'm sure I'll have some more axle wrap issues,but I can build a traction bar. Any other issues that anyones had with them on a bronco?

Also-I would run either an angled block or a shim for pinion angle

I would run either a lift spring or do a shackle flip. If you are planning on wheeling it, wheel hop will be a problem which will ultimately lead to breakage. Adding a traction bar will take away most of the flexibility that you will have be keeping the soft OE springs. It will only mask the problem of poor engineering.
