Default Lift kit trouble

Ive been looking around for awhile now and still no luck. I was wondering if somebody could help me look. i want a 3" body lift and a 5" suspension lift. From the same brand if at all possible, if not that's fine too.. Thanks!

What year of truck? There is only one brand of suspension lift an its tuff country for 97-99 Dakotas an the only good body lift really is performance accessories because they come with everything you need

For an 01 there is no 5" suspension. Only 3" suspension by doetsch now since fabtech discontinued their lift. And like blaze10 said performance accessories is the only decent body lift

cant really get 6 inches without doin an SAS. hightest kit you can get is 3 inches, and body lift it 3 inches. thats all you can really get for 6 inches!
