6" Superbeef Anti-Wrap Ultra Heavy Duty Lift Block Kit
Description:
Lift block options for heavy rigs are just very limited when you start looking at 5" or more and we really wanted to provide a permanent option to RV & Ambulance 4x4 conversion customers that solved for both the weight capacity and the importance of keeping the axle from wrapping under load. It's always nice to have custom leaf packs built for your rig which we can certainly do, but not everyone wants to spend the $2500-$3000 to get that done.
About
Our Superbeef lift block solution is a universal 6" lift block designed primarily for Ford & GM Vans, though they will fit trucks just the same. Our fabricated design features a 2.5" wide footprint with a 6" long base and a 12" long cap with heavy duty retaining clamps to keep the axle situated and mitigate axle wrap which can reduce traction among other things.
To say these are overbuilt is an understatement. These fully boxed units feature 1/2" thick sidewalls and are welded completely. They have been vetted on several 12,000lb+ rigs and are likely good for well more than that.
These blocks are only available in 6" lift form and they are tapered to accommodate proper pinion angle. They play well with both our 5" and 6" 4x4 conversions.
Watch your clearance
These work great for most RV's and cutaways, but some E-350 RV-style DRW vans, namely Chinooks have extremely tight clearance where the tire seats up against the leaf springs and it can be very tight with these. If you have one of these vans, we recommend mocking up wheels and tires with approx lift height to verify your clearances prior to ordering. We haven't had any fitment concerns on E-450s, Ambulances, or Schoolies.
Ordering
When you order this kit, you'll need to specify your vehicle and the thickness of the leaf pack overall down near the axle tube. This determines both the U-bolt size for the blocks, and the anti-wrap brackets.
