Anyone ever had any trouble with trailering with lift blocks in the back? I am thinking of putting 2 inch blockss in the back to level it out, but I pull cars on trailer a lot and don't wanna mess that up.

i dont think you will have any problems with towing with blocks

factory 4x4 dodges came with 3in rear blocks, maybe go to the junk yard and get them for cheap

or AAL helper leafs or shackles

dont throw a block in there you will start getting axle wrap do a shackle flip its easy and it only cost me the price of 8 grade 8 bolts and nuts. good for a couple inches and you can throw drop shackles which in normal circumstances would lower it but with the shackle flipped it will raise it higher with out any side effects whatsoever.

Just flip the factory bracket and drill two new holes and torch off the access. may have to cut the bed rail in the pic if you dont have a body lift. i really didnt need to but i did anyway just incase i ever decide to pull the body lift off.
