The 73 and up springs are too long to fit into the 67-72 factory mounts, the rear springs may fit depending upon length. 12'' of lift will be a custom build with x-over steering and dropping the t-case/trans assy.

The biggest over the counter lift I know of is an 8" from skyjacker.

Boy I wonder what size tires he's wanting to run? I just ordered that skyjacker 8" lift 3 days ago and can"t wait for it to show up. Swapping out the 1/2 ton stuff for a corp 14 bolt and Dana 60 up front. Working OT for the 37" Super Swamper SSR's though.
