Let me ask you this, why do you want a 6" suspension lift?

Trying to fit huge tires?

Remember, the higher you lift, the higher it makes your center of gravity (COG).

With a higher COG, you are more likely to roll over.

Hence the reason I am going to try and fit 33's on stock suspension and my 86' can run 33's on only a 1.5" lift.

Just my .02

Swimmerboy is dead on. For real off road use, lower is better. If you just want to look cool, then maybe just pair a 4" suspension lift with a 2" body lift.

well we can bash all we want...
but if you want it tall just buy any standard 4" lift kit, and add a 2" body lift.
and nobody makes a 6" ifs lift kit

You could do a 4 inch bracket lift, 3 inch body and ball joint spacers. and with a little sawzall persuasion you could fit 49s....

not a bad idea although sounds like a scary combo, and you would need 4" springs and 2" spacers for the rear

With the added lift from the Blazeland Long Travel in front, it might.
