That's what spring and tire I'm running now with a 20x9 Bmf. But ordered a 4400 spring and 20x14 last night

Stroken what tire are you gonna run I kinda got screwed out of 20x12s and have been looking more into 20x14s with the 4800 springs I wanted to run the nitto 420 just worried about stretching it to far

My old truck was raked a decent amount with 4400 lb coils and no rear block. You would have some serious rake with those springs and 250 blocks.

Maybe losing the rear block all together the look i want or

I searched and searched more and read for hourse on lowering these trucks and looking at pictures of ccsb lowered and with what springs and no block or overloads removed and i'm keeping the overloads but no block looks the best.

my thoughts also-lose the rear block

I'm gonna try it and see how much rake there is with 4400lb springs and the stock block. Lol

I think that's the camera. The truck actually sites pretty well perfectly level. Yes, 20x9 .

my trucks lowered with the 4400lb springs and no rear block as of today drove it around saying i was gonna get to pulling the blocks out and never did it, so I had a shop do it, for 50 dollars how could i go wrong. so they did it looks great, but I have a driveline shudder or vibration around 5-20mph roughly. I was looking to hit the track saturday morning for some test and tune action see what this turd does on these nitto 420's. but not sure I want to go with this vibration, did you have any issues after you pulled your rear block. oh btw my rear block was about 3.50" tall. so the truck has about a 1" rake which is perfect but now the vibration has got me all worried.

I never had a vibration, but my truck was an F-250. My blocks were 1 7/8" compared to the 3 5/8" that your F-350 had. Your driveline changed a little more than mine did. My guess is you'll need a shorter single driveshaft or find a way to shim the 2 piece so that it will work, if that's even possible on a lowered truck.

Truck looks really good by the way!
