Hangers and shackles for the front.
Not sure what you currently run in the rear...but either larger springs, larger block or hangers and shackles.
Possibly need shocks all the way around.
And at that height you need crossover steering and to relocate your trac bar (not just a drop bracket, but relocate it to under the engine crossmember with new mounts that go from the driver's side of the crossmember to the top of the passenger side leaf pack using a longer adj. trac bar).
Driveline mods may be necessary as well (not sure if you front is already lengthened or not). A transfer case re-indexing ring and new crossmember is nice at 12" of lift.

With crossover steering, trac bar relocation kit and adj. bar, shackles, and rear springs is over $2000
Then if you need shocks, opt for the indexing ring and crossmember, etc..
It adds up quick once you pass the 8-9" lift height to do it properly.

Just keep as is! If you want bigger tires just install some Bushwacker Cutout fenders.
You can go alot higher but you will have driveline and steering issues and with a higher center of gravity not very good offroader!
But if you have money no big problem, you can go as high as you want. There's always somebody out there who will be glad to take your money.
