Go with a tuff country 4in ez-lift with front springs and rear blocks. That will clear 35s with little rubbing. If you go with their 6in kit, its alot more expensive and then you have to worry about steering parts and if needed a drop transfer case kit. but its up to you. I have two old school dodges. A cummins with a 8in lift on 37s and a w150 4in lift with 35s. both are awsome except the 8in lift was about $1500 with all the right parts. The 4in done right with tuff country lift, 4in drop pitman arm, steering stabilizers, and bilstein 5100 shocks was $900. you could get away with just the lift kit.

Link to the kit? If you get 4 springs, why do they need blocks?

Looks pretty complete. According to the description (I looked it up on their site) the rear springs replace your blocks, which is a good plan. Should be everything you need there.

You are only going up four inches, and the driveshaft is pretty long...... I would think the kit will come with shims, to correct the driveshaft angle at the diff..... Should be fine.
