Lift Kit

What are the pros/cons of having a body lift kit, also with everything does anyone know about what it would cost? I'm lookin for about a 3"-6" lift i've seen a lot of varying prices. So what brand would be the best? My truck is also a 4x2

Thanks

i have a 4x2 with a 3 inch body lift, 2 inch blocks in the rear along with leveling springs and 2 inch spacers. the spring settled so i probably have about 5 inches of lift in the front and 5 in the rear. my body lift is great i have no complaints. i fit 33x12.5 bfg muds on 15x10's with room to spare. any questions just ask. ive been through it all with these damned 2wds.

I have a lot of experience with 2wd I beam fords since I am in the desert racing capital of the south west, Please dont body lift, it is terrible for looks and handling, your best bet is to get Bent I beams from auto fab, do a 4 or 6 inch coil whatever you want, drop pitman arm, extended radius, thats all you'll need
