Lift for '01 F250 PSD and 35s??

Well, I finally got the old F250 some new wheels, rubber and went with an Icon lift, springs in the front and blocks in the rear.
.
The truck drives and rides great! I haven't towed with it yet, but this week the new Hydra chip goes in and I will want to try it out. My boat weighs about 7,500 lbs including the trailer and I want to see how the new truck suspension handles it.
.
The first photo is pre-lift with the stock 16" rims and the second photo is how it sits right now, ready to blaze the Northern California highways towing a wakeboard boat or hauling a bunch of kids to the local frozen yogurt shop!

What size blocks did you end up using in the back.

I really don't remember, when I get home I can check it out. I ended up using a BDS kit and LOVE the way it rides now. I did end up replacing a bunch of worn front end parts which has helped a lot with my tire wear.
