Compare the thickness of the leaf with the length of U-bolt past the nuts. If you can insert a leaf and still have at least a couple or three threads past the nuts, then, no.
Add-a-leaf will give better handling than blocks. Blocks change the distance btween spring pack and axle tubes, which will increase spring wrap.
