How much do you want to spend?

More than 3" and you're looking at an SFA conversion. Independent front suspensions do not get along with big lifts.

I have a suspension lift right now. So the general recommendation is to buy a new lift kit

Yes. Buy a new DB lift, and sell your ULK to make up some of the cost

Ok Thanks for the advice. Ive just seen many trucks on here with 6 inch lifts It looks better to me to be honest. I love my 3 inches but 6 inches makes our kinda of tiny trucks look NOT SO TINY anymore.
