Good idea Domeier, at least check first, maybe that's why someone put blocks in. Did it sit real high with the blocks or just a bit of rake, gives you an idea ahead of time. Maybe you could pull the blocks and try and if too low add a good used long leaf spring to the pack which I have done quite a few times and usually adds about an 1" to 1 1/2" height and would help the old spring packs.
