Based on mistakes with suspension mods my friends and I made in our youth, I would strongly suggest waiting and getting new rear springs.

I just pulled at work and saw this truck. I went to check the leaf springs and it seems like they just added blocks.
I am still taking your advice but surprised to see it after taking about this since last night.

I don't see them being an issue to use since the are a replacement to the originals. Looks like these give you the original block height from the stock block plus the added lift increments.

The stock springs are still inferior to the icons and deavers and will likely sag over time. Not suggesting you go with them but they may be a short term buffer to get you to the deavers.

I'm in the same boat and will likely give these some thought.

New member here, longtime lurker. Had a '14 SCREW that I leveled with the mid perch on the shocks. Now have a '19 SCREW that I'm looking to level and after reading this thread wanna try the Eibachs. Does anyone know anywhere that have any in stock right now? Thanks

So I have the eibach springs on my 2019 screw but not happy with them. I am with everyone else they ride great but only got 1.7 or so of lift. Factory tires on Method 17x8.5. Next week adding the readylift 1.5 spacer on top so no added preload. Going to a 4 inch rear block and if I have to I may eventually do springs or the sct traction bars. Gonna try 37's.

You're gonna throw off the front travel zone with the top spacer. Your droop travel will be an extra 1.5" downward which could lead to binding and CV issues. And the taller block will make axle wrap worse. Just an FYI.

Blocks are fine if all it will ever do is mall crawl. Otherwise going with a +3 rear block will give you a ton of axle wrap and a stiffer ride. Would not recommend

Exactly. Don’t get me wrong it’s your truck you can do what you want to it. But taller blocks are going to effect truck behavior in a negative manner. It will get the look you want but it will not feel the same. You don’t really want to sacrifice ride quality or performance with a “look” if you don’t have to. That’s been my experience.

I differently would not every put a top plate on a Raptor in the thickness you would need to achieve clearance for 37’s after only getting 1.7 out of Eibach springs. As @Pacificwheel mentioned it would through off the rest of the geometry of the front end and cause problems.
