And thats why blocks suck....

Your leaves are starting to deform as well (blocks amplify axle wrap)

Blocks aren't that bad if done properly. But definitely don't help if the springs have negative arch like that.

Blocks are that bad seeing that our leaf springs are too weak to handle them. On a big truck you can get away with it because the leafs are thicker. Or unless you have black magic.
Blocks make the axle work like a lever against the leaf springs. Axle wrap is a big issue with blocks because of that lever action

Everything was tight just crappy cast aluminum hallow blocks. I'm in the market for some steel 3" now, just an FYI.
