Do you need the lift to fit the tires inside the fenders? If the new tires are taller they'll lift the rear. I have both 245/60x14's and 275/60x15's for the rear. The 15's raise the rear a couple of inches. If you need the height for clearance look into getting new springs.

No lift blocks(no leaf springs) or coil spring spacers. If you want adjustment, air shocks, or air bags.

I'd use longer springs or spacers under the springs. The shock mounts aren't made to support load and air bags will make the ride harsh.......
