Tuff Country 97063 Block & Ubolt Kit - 5 1/2" (H) x 3" (W) x 5 1/2" (L) Tapered
Product Details
Description
Lift the rear of your Ford F-350 with confidence using the Tuff Country 97063 Block & U-Bolt Kit. Designed for 4WD F-350 rear suspensions, this bolt-on kit provides a controlled, factory-feel lift that enhances stance, load handling, and tire clearance.
- Lift height and geometry: 5.5" tall tapered lift blocks (5.5" H x 3" W x 4.75" L) designed to replace the factory blocks and step up the rear height; actual lift varies with your vehicle’s factory blocks.
- Rear-axle application: Custom-built for the Ford F-350 rear axle; intended for rear suspension only and not suitable for front axles.
- Material and construction: Heavy-duty cast iron lift blocks crafted for strength and durability; tapered design helps minimize driveline vibration for a smoother ride.
- U-bolts: Extended zinc-plated rear U-bolts engineered specifically for the Ford F-350 to ensure secure mounting and corrosion resistance.
- Shocks compatibility: In most cases, 2" lift or taller requires extended-length shocks; plan to upgrade shocks to preserve ride quality and alignment.
- Block type options: Kits may include CAST BLOCKS or ALUMINUM BLOCKS depending on production run; both configurations are designed to maintain a factory-like ride.
- Installation: Simple bolt-on installation that inserts the lift blocks between the factory leaf springs and axle for a straightforward upgrade.
- Fitment range: Designed to fit 1999–2016 Ford F-350 4WD; ensure your vehicle aligns with these years for best compatibility.
Lift height will vary based on your factory block size, so the exact amount of lift depends on the OE block currently installed on your truck. This kit is built to preserve the factory ride while giving you the extra rear height you need for improved stance and improved clearance under load.
