You just opened a can of worms, people will tell you why "this" way is best, and "that" way sucks. I have a 2in. spacer up front and 1 1/2 blocks in the rear. Use shackles on the rear if you can get the bolts out without breaking them, if not, go with the blocks.
Now quick, delete this thread before the anti-block guys come in trying to talk you out of it with their "Axle wrap" rhetoric, or worse, the AAL guys will come in touting their bone jarring Add a leafs.

IMO:
add a leafs suck, this is not going to last from my experience.
Blocks are just sketchy ha. Its not really upgrading to just shove a block in there.
It might be near impossible to get the leaf bolts out if they have never been. But you should be looking for stronger springs if youre going upwards

OP, look at Zone, I bought a 2" shackle and spacer from a vendor off here. Real nice price. Check vendor section
