my 3" started as a 1" in the rear. Slightly low compared to the 3 in front. Added a 1.5" block. No axel wrap but I do trails not rocks and live in a desert so mud is rare. The block was angled so it helped with the pinion angle. Today I added shackles, which you'll find most prefer to blocks. I'm sure it won't be long and it will be sagged enough that I'll do a 3" spring pack and the shackles.

Watched the down pour wash all the mud off it. I worked really hard to get it that muddy. Was going to mount 8 lights on it but due to the rain it will have to wait. 2 6" lights on front bumper and 4 small fog lights facing forward and 2 facing backwards mounted on the roof. Should be nice while trailing at night.
