Pretty sure you can use block on the rear as long as its a leaf spring. Then I know you can put 1 ton or 3/4 ton coils in the front that'll give you about 2 inches then go either body lift or spacers in the front for the extra amount ou want. I'm also pretty sure you can put 4x4 lift springs in the rear, again as long as your rear is leaf spring. correct me if I'm worng though. also you can put just a body lift on it. plenty of those out there. Going to be kind of hard to find a 5 or 6 inch lift though. common is 2 and 3 you can find them though I know they are out there. I've thought about doing the same to my truck. If you do it let me know how it turns out.
