just jumping in here, blocks suck because they cause axle wrap however, on vehicles with leaf springs, building up a lift and doing it right is key. if you do an all AAL say 8" lift, the leafs are gonna make a half moon shape and thats not good. rather than doing that, do a combo of leaf packs, shackles and maybe an inch of block. right now ive got 3.5" of lift in brand new leaf packs and an inch of lift from the shackles (i actually netted 6 inches in total lift so about 5" in the new leaf packs but you get the point).
no idea what the 2 pages is about but thats my opinion on blocks.

I'm thinking 5.5" and 6.5" (both holes) but i could be wrong...
