Default Do I need a angled block or not for a 3" drop

My truck is a 95 2 door 4x4. I'm doing a 3" drop front and back. I've searched all the thread's, and some say you need the angled block, and some say you don't. It's very confusing.
I guess the better question would be,,,would it hurt anything to have it just as insurance. Thank's.

It will only help to correct for the different driveshaft angles. This is more of a problem when lifting than lowering, but it will not hurt anything to have it.
