Depends on what you wanna do with the vehicle. Rancho had a 3 inch suspension lift but its discontinued. I think a 5.5 tuff country kit is avaiable but offroad i hear its pretty much junk. The most common and best looking lifts (IMO) are the performance accessories bodylifts. I offroad and hunt so larger tires and more ground clearence was what i needed. I am running a 3 inch body lift and a slight torsion adjustment to level out my front end with the back. I love it but with the larger tires and lift i have had to upgrade brakes, re-gear the axles, and re-program the computer for correct odometer and speedometer readins. So it all depens on your demand and budget.

The tuff country lift will run you $1700-1800. If you look in the FAQs there is a link to it.
