Are you just doing a lift? Or a 4x4 conversion? Big difference in parts.

I actually have an odd mix of parts to get where l liked it because it originally started out as a 6” lift

I had 6” tough country spring block combo in the back which original had 2” blocks which i removed. Then I got 4” lift springs for the front. I would then suggest a cross over steering kit from Off Road Design, i have one but had to remove it because it interfered with my custom 292 motor mount bracket. For now i have a 4” lift steering block to fix the steering angle but i still get a decent amount of bumper steer which is really annoying. You will also need new shocks and extended break lines.
