they make 2 and 3 inch body lifts and 2 1/2 to 4 inch suspension lifts that might get the height you're looking for. Body lifts are like $99. If you have an I6 and you go the body lift route you're going to need to get a longer lower radiator hose and bend the tranny cooler lines out of the way. Otherwise the smog pulley will saw through them.

I think Rancho might make a 3 inch. But just about everybody makes a 2 1/2 inch and a 4 inch. Try Skyjacker, Superlift, Rough Country...
