This is my pickup after the ranchand, but why does all rear lift block kits have the pin on top of the block when mine needs to be on the bottom?

 

Are they marked for left/right?

 

No sir, all I got In the box was 2 longer u bolts, 2 2in tapered unmarked blocks, and that's it, not even any directions.

 

Well that always adds interest to life....

which end is tapered if you orient the centering pins correctly?

 

Correctly installing the blocks, there would be a decline from left to right.

 

Erm..... bottom of the block? Top of the block? (tapered front to rear) If they are tapered side to side, that is just wrong.

 

Lol I'm sorry, the tapered pat of the block is on top. I guess so that it would lift the pinion yolk up for better pinion angle. Taper is starting at the rear and desending forward.

 

That doesn't seem right to me. That would have the blocks tilted, moving the axle forward a (very) little bit.... not exactly stable. Have you chatted with the manufacturer? Wonder if they sent you the wrong blocks....

 

I have to agree with ya, so what would you do in my case?

 

I have installed the blocks already, truck sits down in the rear, just a wee little bit, looks good to me but their again I have only drove it about 500ft. The truck is at 41in from the floor to the fender all the way around. I don't know what to do, the blocks on ebay or anywhere else have the pin on top of the block too, but I need it on the bottom.
