i would have to agree on the superduty srings. i had a 96 suburban that i did a solid axle on and ran 4" skyjacker springs on front with about a 4" drop from the frame and ran 40,s and did a shackle flip on the rear. but i moved my hangers back 2 inches so the tire wasnt so close after the flip, i ran a 5 inch rear spring and a 2 inch block. it may be hard to believe but it rode better than when it was stock. it ended up with about 12" lift.
