i got my bars to go over 2" almost 2.5 and i put blocks under the rear end that are 2" and i just got a body lift of 3" that's as high as you can go without a SAS.

2500 for a torsion bar lift is nuts! You can do a sas for cheaper than that

I haven't ever seen a 4 inch lift kit, but have seen a 5.5". I don't think they're made anymore though.

Yeah that's right it was only for 97-99. Not sure if theyre still made. And I also remember that 6" truckin suspension as mentioned above. Most of the stuff I read about the truckin kits said that they were crap.
