That block should have the axle snubbers on it. It will probably work, but the snubbers will hit the axle.

I'd look into shackles on the cheap and new leaf packs if I had the cash.

Yeah, it has snubbers on it, but without the blocks the snubbers are supposed to hit the axle. If you use shackles or springs with the block in there it will hit the snubber prematurely probably causing a harsh ride.
