If by "blocks" you mean cement blocks - they are unsafe. They work fine right up until they crumble, and kill you or whoever is under the truck. Quality jack stands are really the only way to go. Now, unfortunately, nobody is sure whether what they are buying IS of any quality. You may not have meant cement blocks, but mentioning just in case someone interpreted it that way.
