ok i decided to put a add-a-leaf on and either a 1.5 or a 2" rear lift block. my question is is. what are the torque specs of the rear suspention spring pack and the "u" bolts that hold down the lift block?

also will does any know if i will need new u bolts if i get a 2 inch block?

and where is the best place to get add-a-leafs and blocks?
thanks in advance for the help

I added a 3 inch block and had to get longer u bolts...With the add a leaf and 2 inch block that will put you about where i am. I bought new u bolts for 10 bucks a piece.My blocks cost 45 bucks for the pair. All together about 90 bucks..Makes the truck look ten times better and sits a lil higher then the fords and dodges.
