Default Rear block removal on tow package silverado

hello...ive done some searching and havent quit found the answer i am lookin for....i have an 04 silverado 5.3 reg short box with towing package....lookin to removal the 2 inches block thats under the rear springs...my question is...if i was to remove that block do i run the risk of ruining any drivetrain?....i do know that it will change the angle of the axel but is it goin to be enough to hurt anything?

Default RE: Rear block removal on tow package silverado

if it is a angled block it will change the driveline angle but i dont think they do that till it get's about 3 inches thick. the biggest thing that will happen is that it will really hit the ground when you load the truck ,they put it in their to give it a rake unloaded and lay down close to level when you load the truck .
