Lift blocks are quite possibly the worst thing you could bolt onto your truck.

The hundreds of thousands of trucks on the road with blocks are fine with it and I'm sure he will be too.
You can think what you like, I've seen how miserable they are first hand numerous times at Pismo Dunes.
Go do some research at Pirate4x4 about blocks, see what kinda answers you find. They get the job done as far as aesthetics. But off-road handling, especially at higher speeds will suffer.
All I'm saying is there's better options, blocks are the lazy mans answer to the problem.
I doubt it, you would just find the people who tolerate the axle wrap and wheel hop, and those people who haven't experienced a block failure.
I agree about the bashing on pirate, however they build things that serve a function, not street queens with chrome lift blocks.
Even on the street the lift blocks will impact handling. They increase the likelihood of spring failure and the blocks themselves can come apart cause major accidents.
You don't have to believe me, just google "are lift blocks bad" and thumb through the thousands of posts about lift block failures.
If you do any off-roading, towing or hard driving you should explore orther options.
But if you must use blocks, please don't use the CHEAP cast aluminum blocks.
