Find a 4x4 f350 with the front end still there, if you unbolt the springs, brake lines, trac bar mount, sway bar mount, and drive shaft you will have everything you need and should just bolt rite up to what you putting it under, with 95-97 axles it's simple bolt in, 86-94 axles will need the ledge on the brake line block grinded flat

The back blocks would only raise the rear a couple inches, not necessary and it will sit level without them, I've done one in a couple hours, mite take longer mite get shorter, just depends on skill and tools available

I would recommend that you did, just leave them on the axle when you take it from the truck
