Explorer leaf springs plus 3 ranger leaves per side plus belltech shackles on Ballistic Fabrication leaf spring perches netted me over 4 inches of lift WITHOUT the factory block and they flex amazing. I'm running around 3-3.5" suspension lift in the front w/ a 3" body lift.

This isn't even close to maxing the travel out
