What size are you looking for Nolan? Top Gun Custom or 4wheelparts both sell blocks and u-bolt kits in either 3" or 4". Seems like they're around $80.

Thats part of what Im confused on... The stock f250 block is 2" right??? So in which case an aftermarket 3" block should bring it level right? Or should I go 4"?

The stock block is 2". You've already got your front done, park on level ground and measure from the ground to the bumper or frame at each corner. Then determine how much you want to bring it up.

Seems like Brandon used the 4" superlift blocks from 4wheel parts on his truck.

You can always use a stock 4" block too, or even the 3.5" tapered block us Excursion owners go to when we do the V code/B code mod.

Just a suggestion because in my case after I added air bags it made the rear end sit high again. You have to always a keep 5-10psi in the bags and that will raise the back when empty. I ended up swapping Mike for his 250 blocks and now mine sits perfect and we are both happy. You might want to consider leaving it until you do the bags and then see if you still want the taller blocks, or you might be doing it again.
