I'm running 4" blocks in my rear suspension now *juk I know*. I need to correct pinion angle 6 degrees up but most shims of this size require bolting directly to the spring pack which will not work with blocks.

So, I'm on a budget. I'm looking at having a local machinist mill the blocks for a 6 degree correction and drilling the pad nub of the block for a bolt. ~$60.

Q: Anyone know who might make lift blocks with a correction already built in for a reasonable price?
 
i just got shimms for mine at ORW and they had a set of 6*for $18 on the floor. dang sorry, just reread the block part:( nvrmnd im an idiot
 
I've had 3" Superlift Blocks and 4" Rancho blocks in the past, both with pinion correction built in. Like a shim.
 
As already stated you can buy blocks with the correction built in. Other options would be to cut/re-weld your spring perches for the correct angle or do a shackle flip and throw away the blocks, and enjoy the other benefits a shackle flip has to offer.
 
not to get off the subject but how much lift do you get out of a flip and what is involved.
 
thay offer 2.5 lift and 4" lift. easy swap. just pop off 6 rivits and 1 shackle bolt and looses 1 spring eye bolt and then bolt on new hangers and re bolt shackle up and also spring eye bolt. www.offroaddesign.com is one place and there is others here in the vender section. good luck.
