Does a block kit lower the front or the rear of a truck/SUV?
Block kits are used to lower the rear of a truck only. Due to the fact that the front and rear suspension on trucks are different (in order to accommodate the load of cargo a truck bed is built to carry), blocks kits are not applicable to front suspension of any truck. A common form of front suspension on trucks is a set of coil springs for example, and block kits do not work with coil springs. Can a block kit be used to lift a vehicle? Yes, absolutely. You can put the block kit on other side of the leaf springs to ‘raise them’ and your vehicle. You can use a block kit to raise or lower your vehicle; the block kit system works the same either way by putting space between the leaf spring and axle. You just decide if you want to make the leaf spring go up (lower the vehicle), or down (lift the vehicle). How do you install a block kit? Block kits are installed between your rear axle and the leaf springs using U-bolts to fasten the leaf spring and block together. The U-bolts are specially
