i have a 14' 4 door, I put a 2" block in the front struts to lift the front a bit, it almost leveled the truck perfectly, but im thinking of dropping the Rear block from the stock 2-3/4" to a 1.5". Im looking for a slite baja look nothing drastic, is the $130 block option a good option? what are your thoughts? see pics of truck in profile thanks
***also wanted to add, instead of replacing the block, should i get a little bit longer rear shackle for the dever springs? let me know if there are other options!

I had The Ford Dealer install a 2" block in the front struts. what are your opinions? it helped my 37s fit better, Im not using this truck for offroad abuse, its strictly a road truck, the occasional jobsite here and there. No jumping!
-i did the front to try and level the truck out while keeping a little bit of a lift. i really would like to lower that rear a bit but not sure what route to go, lower the block? or dever spring shackle replace? let me know too
thanks ya'll

Mid or top perch adjustment on your already adjustable Fox 2.5's is the first correct move.

Drop shackles for your rear leaf springs is the second correct move.

The Raptor suspension is pretty awesome stock, so don't mess with it by adding lifting blocks or changing stock rear blocks. This aftermarket crap is gonna end up letting you down one of these days and costing you a lot more money in the long run. Read the thread that Kaiser sent you. Good luck.....
