I see you're new here, and I'll point you in the right direction.

First, hit the search button up top and that'll help you figure out which lift you want, and how it's done.

Second, here's our fantasitc Lift FAQ..... https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f31/suspension-lift-faq-44741/

It helps to help yourself.

Disconnect your stock shocks. Cycle your suspension by ramping the truck on an incline or using a floor jack to find your full compression. Take a measurement of this. Next check the other side which should be at full droop. Take measurements both front and rear. When you are done, take those measurements to your off-road store and have them order the shocks that will allow that much compression/droop.
