ReadyLIFT explicitly notes that final lift height varies based on the factory block your truck has installed. If your F-250 came with a factory block (many do for towing applications), the net gain over the existing block height depends on the difference between the factory block height and this kit's 4-inch block.

Extruded aluminum blocks at 4 inches of height under a loaded Super Duty are a compromise in construction material. ReadyLIFT's explicit language — \"never made out of lightweight extrusions\" — is there because they know that's the corner competitors cut at lower price points.
