I am wanting to put a 3" lift on my dodge ram. It comes factory with the off road package, so will the blocks in the rear be removed to put in the new ones or will the new block just sit on the old one.  I have seen some lift kits that say not to be used with factory off road package.  What lift kits are the best.

It depends on the kit you get. Some keep the block and put in an add-a-leaf. Some replace the entire spring pack. Then the front is handled differently depending on the kit you get. And the more parts you replace, the higher the price. It all depends on what you want to replace and how much you want to spend. You can do a body lift all the way up to a full system (what I did).

Just do a shackle flip in the rear and coil space the front, save you alot of money and time. But about your question on the blocks, when I first lifted mine with blocks I double stacked them.. looks really lame man and your gonna regret doing it later on.

Yep search. Seems like this ? and exhaust ?'s get asked weekly if not daily.

Anyway I'm a Skyjacker fan and like my Skyjacker lift.
