Does anybody make 3" rear spring blocks?

I have a 350 and it is about 1/2" too tall to fit into my parking garage at work. I know the 250 has a 2" spring block spacer and the 350 has a 4" spring block spacer. I'm thinking about just dropping 1" if anybody makes a 3" spacer. Thanks.

Lot's of folks make different size blocks. Always install new U-bolts when changing the blocks.

I would just go to the F250 blocks and have a little extra clearance.

Ordinarily I would scoff at the idea of lowering a Super Duty....but last weekend I saw an 08-10 F-250 2WD Super Cab short bed that had been lowered a few inches, sporting what looked like the KR 20 inch wheels, and it looked pretty darn good!
