I have had good luck with the Pro Comp lifts from 4 Wheel Parts Wholesalers. I had a 6" lift with 35" BFG All Terrain T/A's on both a 75 Blazer and an 86 Suburban. With the 6" lift, you will want to drop the transfer case about 1/2" (at least), use the raised arm and dropped drag link, and extended brake lines. More money well spent is a double shock kit, at least in the front. My advice would be to go with a 4" lift and 35's if you are not going to do any serious off roading. The ride will be better, and you can get away with doing less. The tires thould clear, worst case is you might have to clearance the bottom of the fender behind the wheel.
