Rear lift

granted in my case they were 6" blocks, 35's and a welded diff on dry pavement... bit extreme, but it can and does happen. i thought it was an old wives tale too, till i got this truck. i could feel everything trying to rip apart turning the thing before i fixed it.
the u-bolts were plenty tight... nice BANG when i cut them off.

These "weak" engines cause a pretty good but if axle wrap. Look up ram technologies on YouTube. He has a video on a 2nd gen 2500 360 and you can clearly see the axle wrap

My daughter's boyfriend bought a 2500 with stacked blocks. They were loose and he tightened them before they came out. He finally put a shackle flip kit from DIY 4x4 in it with a single block. That's what I would suggest you do. Tall blocks whether single or stacked act like a breaker bar on the springs and u-bolts. It can cause wheel hop and vibration as the axle can move front to rear twisting the springs and u-bolts.U-bolts can stretch causing the blocks to pop out. 2-3 inch blocks are normal, staying 4 inch and under is recommended. I'm in the never ever stack blocks camp. It's stupid and dangerous.
