I took my factory rear blocks out on my truck and just bolted my leaf springs directly to my axle. The blocks were slightly beveled so I'm guessing I need to shim my springs correct? If so, does anyone know what degree the factory blocks are? Here are a few pictures.

Does it vibrate when you take off?
I'm pretty sure my factory blocks are flat

I didn't used tapered shims when I pulled my rear blocks, about 75,000 miles ago.
I can't tell if it vibrates or not around here. I live out in the country and I don't have a smooth road around here to tell. Seems like sometimes I can feel a vibration but idk if it's my truck or the roads. I have a 3.5 degree shim now but don't know if I even need it.

That's what angle finders are for.
Yeah I'm working on that.
