Just go big and do a 6in suspension. 3in body And crank your keys and do custom rear springs. I'm waiting on my springs for the rear but here's just rear blocks sits and inch or 2 to low. Springs will be custom 10in springs an will take the factory block out and just have shims for the right angle. And zone makes a good lift for the front. But their u bolts and blocks suck

Thanks man. They're powder coated eagle alloy rims, 16". I like the ProComp too. When I got the truck I wanted to lift it more than 4", but sittin here now I'm glad I didn't... The 4 is perfect, but of course all ones personal preference.

10" rear leafs are going to leave about 1.5" high in the rear Depending on what company you went with. I wanna try to completly swich to six lug permenantly. I may try doing a axle swap, then see what I can do about using the newer style knuckles and brakes and stuff. I've already check and the 97-03 truck share the same outer joints as a 04-06.
