Question - Leveling Solera with Lynx Blocks

When using Lynx Blocks to level the Solera, do we need to use blocks under both tires of the rear duals? And if not, do we put the blocks under the inside tire, or the outside tire? Thanks!

Always support both inner and outer tires equally. The suspension is designed to support the weight of the vehicle on two tires. Failure to do that can result in stress on parts of the suspension that it is not designed to stand.

We carry 3 sets of Lynx blocks and have rarely used the third set but always support inner and outer tires equally.

Thank you for the helpful information!
