Never said it can't happen to stock trucks.
Also, avoid lifting blocks at all cost. This means getting more expensive custom leafs. Blocks create a large reaction moment from the rear axle's torque. This moment twists the leafs, which can cause everything from excessive U-joint wear (even if aligned to begin with) to axle hop.
You said it... "Blocks create a large reaction moment..." " this moment twist the leafs" ....nothing about stock vs blocks. Your post suggests that wheel hop only happens to lifted trucks using blocks, it can happen to stock as well as lifted trucks...its not a lift only issue!
