You also have to keep in mind what will go along with a 6" or so lift. You have to have all the nececary brackets to relocate certain things (brakes, panhard rod), longer stainless steel brake lines, possibly new control arms (thats what I would do) to help it flex better and center the rear end keep stuff from braking. It is all possible and not too hard but will just cost $$$. Its not as easy as just slaping some longer springs and shocks on.
Also with the front you could do the 4" brackets and some 1.5" BJ spacers to give it a 5.5" lift. You could get some new tbars and crank them to get a full 6". Then you still have to concider getting maunual hubs because of the increased wear, and angle of the drive shafts.

Dude, this is 863 with nothing in the rear except my 1/4" 2x5 bumper and tire carrier.....
Notice how high that float...with 35" tires.... with 33s or 31's it's gonna look like ballet dancing.
I'd end up selling those and got 860 instead.
Remember, you also need to change the Drive shaft and transfer case output flange unless you drill out the flange.
I read that you're on a tight budget? well this lift is not for you then.
Like I posted in the other thread, Ball joint spacer, 3" downey rear lift kit, Roger Brown 2" body lift. This lift will fit 33's. oh, you gonna want to re-gear too especially with automatic ( don't know what you got ). Oh, don't forget a locker or two.

If you're on a budget, this ain't for you.
the rear upper and lower links are 500
860 coils 140
raised pan hard bar 90
junk yard drive shaft 75
drive shaft extended and balanced 100
new flange for the drive shaft 45
move the gas tank 500 ( cause the upper rear link is gonna land on the lip of the gas tank and the drive shaft is gonna hit the tank)
shocks 150
regear and locker...lol...( depends on what you put in, I used toyota elocker 450, converted to cable 100, 5.29 gear 150, regear 150 )
Five 35 MTR with one 15x8 black steel rim....1100.00
SAS....too scary to list them or add them up....but just the diff, Hi pinion 5.29 ARB 1400.
Labor...do it yourself and welding buddy.

You might wanna go with this instead.
front, Cranked torsion bar-- free ( you can use ball joint spacer for better ride and flex )
rear, downey 3" kit. 300
Body lift 100
tires...33x12.5....600
15x8 rims..almost free...sold the stock alloy and got a cheap deal off internet.
oh, almost forgot, remove running board...free
remove front valance....free
Labor....do it yourself.
No matter what kit you get for the front, make sure you convert your hub to manual....45-70.
