The disks were added after I thought about how often I pull a trailer. Crappy photo of the dana 60 rear as installed.
not to sound like a big prick but your rear suspension has some bad stuff going on there .

double stacked blocks = bad stuff .

then the unbolted wedges with double stacked blocks = bad stuff.

try and make new or get premade blocks with angle you need and hight and swap them in place .

seen to many bad things happen with stacked blocks and those style un secured wedges you have on the bottom of the napco made lift blocks .
