'68 and earlier had blocks but the height was lowered in '69. I don't know if that was accomplished with a lower height block or complete removal.

My 69' did not have blocks.
Those blocks look just like the blocks that came on newer trucks.

Triggerfish's truck is a W100, I believe.
That's why I'm not sure on this yet. The
W200 Sweptlines weren't equipped with
the lift blocks from '69-'71. The W100s
used 5 lug axles and different springs
starting in '69. :study
