I put a full length add a leaf in my truck.It also had the factory blocks and a small block that was about 1/2 inch in front and 3/4 in back.I was trying to see what height I would get in back before doing the front.I took it out for a spin and it shook my my fillings out up to about 10mph. I took the small blocks out and it was fine.The driveshaft looked even to me so I think It wound up taking off and caused the shudder.

Look on Super lifts or Louisville 4 wheel drive websites for the shims. I gave mine away about a month back and they came from Louisville drive. If you can't find them let me know and if I have too I'll get them and send them to you. The last set I used I made them on the Bridgeport at work. It was easier than hunting them. Most of the time these are easier to find at a truck suspension place than a performance place cuz they don't lift they lower.
