i think superlift makes a 4 inch lift. someone does, superlift or skyjacker. you could have more options but the rear spring width is the sticking point unless you want to change spring mounting points to something newer. factory, these trucks are pretty danged tall. mine rides much higher than a super duty and even higher with the big tires.
