Default Front Lift

I have a dilemma...maybe. Last year I leveled my 94 with 3/4T could in the front. leveled it nicely. I have just finished replacing the rest of the suspension...and I put 3/4T leaf springs on the rear. All is good, however now it sits high in the rear again. What are my options for raising the front say another 2"? Would like to use coils, not spacers, will I need drop radius arm brackets? New radius arms? Any issues getting it aligned? Also, probably should get longer travel shocks front and rear... front for sure if I raise another 2". Anyone have any input on this?

The 4" coils won't fit without the kit, either way gonna need to be re aligned after. Get fully adjustable camber busings.

A 4" lift kit, you'll need all the drop brackets. You can't go any bigger then 2" unless you want to buy drop brackets.

Radius arm brackets and the I-beam drop brackets, along with taller shocks. Flex lines might also need to be longer but not sure how much travel they have at 4" lift.
