Since the axle is above the springs, putting blocks between them would lower the truck, not lift it.

You dont have lift blocks for an S10 blazer. You have drop blocks. Unless the lift blocks were sold with a SOA kit....which I doubt..

Blocks can only lift when the leafs are on top of the axle. You need longer shackles in the rear or you could do a spring over axle conversion for even more rear lift.
