Most local auto stores carry lift blocks. You can grab them there. They are pretty much universal. Ifthey don't have them, go to autozone.com and grab them there.

Yes, the kit is standard, or universal. You can buy any block lifting kit. I bought mine at autozone. I also have the TM leveling kit, and blocks in the rear. I went with 2" blocks. All you need is the blocks, and the longer u-bolts, and they will fit perfectly. No need to have the blocks angled, they will work fine right off the store shelf.

Make sure you get aluminum blocks. Although they have a lower crush strength, they handle vibration, heat and cold, and the elements much better then the cast iron blocks.
