I havnt found anything but the 6.5" lift and from my understanding it is for show and not to be abused. Our IFS is not ideal for off road use, a solid axle swap would be the best option 
BUT you can do the torsion bar crank and get blocks or an add a leaf kit for the rear. The torsion crank is good for 2" max, just be sure to get an alignment after.

if you got the money and are going to abuse it go solid axles. Especially if you have some junk sitting around!. I spent about 3500 on axles, gears and leaf springs/misc brackets. Next expensive thing was tires.
So if you got an old ford sitting around something like a 79 f-350 and 250 Swap that stuff in cost you next to nothing.
