F350 blocks and radius rods?

I have a 2001 4x4 with the F350 rear blocks. The blocks have caused a lot of axle wrap and I was wondering if anyone here has installed the radius rods with F350 blocks?

Thanks
Charlie

Not with 350 blocks, but they should work just fine I'd think. The maker of Radius Rods is very knowledgeable, and easy to ask questions of. You should ask him.

As long as the total amount of lift is 4-1/2" or less, and you're still running FOMOCO leaf springs, the radius-rods will fit. If the amount of lift is more than 4-1/2", Landyot suggests you go with ladder bars instead of radius-rods.
