Need six-inch blocks
I need six-inch rear blocks for the back of the truck in my sig. Right now the stock 4” are in. Any Idea where I can get some? I found a set online for $225 and I want to avoid spending that type of money..
Any help would be great.

How do you rebuild them with more lift? Are you talking about add a leafs or helpers?

A spring shop can re-build an existing spring pack and add more arch to them. This will provide more lift. In addition the spring shop can add more leafs that are thinner than the originals. This will make a larger pack so weight capacities are not compromised, and the larger dimension will add additional heigth as well, but having thinner leafs will not require a sacrifice in ride. Having spring packs re-built is not uncommon, nor is it really expensive.
Add-a-leafs just add resistance, and while it does add lift, does so ata compromise in ride quality.
Helper leafs do not offer any lift, and are typically seperate from the priginal leaf pack, and only offer additional resistance when the original spring flattens out due to excessive loads, or when load capacities of the leaf have been reached.
