no. what shocks did you put on the back when you put the blocks on?

leafs look like crap?

when i did a swap on the rear axle because it was whining i looked at the leafs and they seemed to be fine and the blocks were already on the truck when a bought it so idk if he kept the stock shocks or what. would it be a good idea to buy new shocks?

blocks wont make it ride stiff in fact they will do the opposite they do nothing for stiffening suspension. only thing that would make the rear ride stiff is an AAL or the shocks at max extension.

maxing the tbars will hurt the ride more than an AAL i would run an AAL over a shackle or larger block but outside of an AAL get shackles the normal beltech 6400s
