The truck came from the factory with blocks in back. I think they were something like 3 to 5" tall. Personally, I am not a fan of lift blocks. They give the axle quite a bit more leverage on the springs, so, 'axle wrap' becomes a real issue. The shackle flip is an excellent idea, and I would be tempted to go with different springs as well, and eliminate the blocks entirely.

As for my truck, getting ready to drop it down to 7" lift.

They blend it with sand or put down a beet juice brine (ND produces a lot of sugar beets). I only drive my truck 800-1000miles a year. I have a daily driver car to keep my truck nice since my truck is just for personal stuff. Ever since I got my AWD R/T charger I rarely need my truck for getting to work in the winter. My drivers fender is trash beneath the flare, I have a good one on a parts truck just pushing it off as paint is expensive (hood was mostly covered by insurance from hail). My box sides are surprisingly good, same with passenger fender. I POR-15'd my inner box sides, through the tail light hole. Helps my truck only has 83k miles.
