Are the rear lift blocks on a stock 05' F350 tapered or not?

dont think they are on crew cabs. ext cabs and reg cabs maybe because of the 1 piece driveshaft. crew cabs have 2-piece shafts with a carrier bearing to achieve the right angle...

Crawl under your truck and look /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif

i have an 05 f250 cc psd and i was going to put 350 blocks under my truck. i called suspension connection and they told me that i needed to buy the angled blocks. whether that is true, i don't know, but that is what i was told.

I read on this site that you should replace tapered with tapered, and non with non.

I replaced my non tapered blocks (crew cab) with non tapered and experienced no vibration problems.

well i don't know , but today i put 4" tapered blocks under my 05 f250 cc psd and i love it. the trucks rides and feels perfect. i ordered the daystar 2.5" leveling kit that will be installed next week. then after that it is tire time. i will let you know how my blocks are doing then. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/warmsmile.gif

where are you getting the blocks and u bolts Im assuming thats all you are changing

I bought the blocks from my local suspension shop along with the new U-Bolts. I found out that you have to shim the carrier bearing. I don't know how much I have to shim yet but I have been told about an inch. Not a big deal. U-bolts and new shims ran me $100.

if youve got a 2 piece driveshaft(crew cabs), youre better off with a flat block...
