Want more lift on my truck..pretty much only seeing 4" kits..do they make a 6" kit? I have 4" front springs now..thinking add 3" reverse shackle lift but the ones I seen were pricey in my opinion. .any other options ? Aside body lift. .

If you have a solid axle you can just go get a set of springs made up for the lift you want at a spring shop or check for some Deaver springs...they be top shelf material!

If a TTB I'd be very skeptical of going more than 4" as the brackets are weak links..

Good luck...

Running a d60.. will check with local spring shop but reverse shackle probably be cheaper. .

Skyjacker makes a 4, 6 and 8... My friend had a crew cab like yours with a 3 inch body lift and a 8inch skyjacker lift with 44 ground hawgs

also you can buy/make longer shackles and in the rear shackle flip down with lift springs you can make it pretty high
