The front drive axle is a custom built dana 70/60 mashup.
I had the blocks put in temporarily.

'Drive it a while. That rear end isn't some dumb s10 set up. If you think you need spring built, you'll be wrong, but hey, its your RV.'
I was all set to have Deevers build me 4" lift military wrap springs like on that zr2 blazer.
He was right, the Blocks don't spring wrap or wiggle.
I haven't changed the springs, I'll keep the blocks.
The zr2 has 5 leaf, under axle springs with military wraps.
5 springs. About 300lb tongue weight squashes them...just as it should be.
