    I know everyone says to go with Beefed blocks, but when on a tight budget, will the DJM Steel blocks surfice? It can save me about $60 to use towards shocks on the front. Just looking for opinions please.

    i haven't personally used either blocks. I have just a block set I bought from Advance auto on my truck and they have been on the truck 10+ yrs with no issues. The benefit of Beef Taco blocks is he does make the angle correct for the driveshaft.

    the DJM steel blocks are fine. I have had a pair on mine for a while. The 4" ones are slanted. Just don't get the aluminum blocks, they're junk. I have heard nothing but good things about Beefed blocks though.

    If interested I have a set of 4" beef blocks with u-bolts I no longer need as I bought drop leafs. Asking $80 shipped.

    Message sent. I'm assuming they are angled.
