    I would buy some adjustable coils like fox, king, Icon or racerunner (saws), toytec ultimate, or billies if doing it on a limited budget.

    I had 4" spindles and 3" blocks in the front, only 1.5" blocks in the rear.

    My thought is spindles up front for 4" and IF you wanted so add something to the back you could go with a small block or even an add of leaf. But with the natural rake of the truck, the spindles alone may get you the look you are shooting for. They won't alter the ride quality and they don't change the geometry so you won't need upper controls arms (which are an added expense) to get your alignment back like you would with coil lifts over around 2.5". Plus they are a nice building block for future mods. You can use the spindles for lift and if you wanted to either add in shocks/coilovers for added performance or even more height down the line you can easily do so. We have several spindle lifts pictured on our FB page in case you wanted to stop by and check it out. You can also PM me or call me and I can go over the in's and out's of running the spindles.

    I'd toss a couple fat chicks in the bed, that should squat it pretty good.
