Cant say on your application but I thin 6" is the cut off for all lift kits as 6" is the highest you can lift a vehicle legally and still be street legal.
At least that is what I have heard customers told at work when they wanted more than 6" lift.

A 6 inch lift is iffy. You run into driveshaft length problems and angle problems. 4 inch lift is much less problematic. Of course you can lift them higher, but you have to do your homework when doing it, adding different methods of lift together along with custom driveshafts and double cardan joints, different steering setups, etc.
