rear blocks with traction bars?
2006 F350 6.0. Im purchasing a Rize 6" 4 link lift. For the rear im not sure if i want the lift blocks with traction bars or a leaf spring pack. I tow about 6-10 a year nothing real heavy. Whats getting me is that I can get both the lift blocks, traction bars, and the physical appeal of the traciton bars, for a little more than and a set of rear leaf springs. Any advice??
Thanks, DB

IMO...go with the blocks and traction bars. As you said...they look cool...and will not cause any issues with your SD.
If you were not going to purchase the traction bars...and only the blocks...I would advise against it due to axle wrap, but that is eliminated with the bars.

So as far as towing goes, would i be fine with the blocks and traction bars. Also would the blocks and bars give a harsher ride compared to the leaf springs?
