Yup body lift is the absolute cheapest way to go.
I paid like 212 for mine but if I would've decided a little earlier I coulda got it for uner 200. Do the work your self, it'll take a good part of the day but it's not hard. Just take ur time and do it right. A shop would probably charge 500 or more for the install.

Bodylift, then crank your t-bars and add-a-leaf in the rear. Cheap lift for around 300 smackers, and will get you in the 4-5" range.


How deep can that pond possibly be?

Cheapest way to get about 2" would be to crank the torsion bars, and put a lift block in the back. Most people get close to 2" up front by cranking the bars, I did.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way

Look at where they anchor to the rear - you will see a bolt that sets the torsion - tighten to raise. Easier with an air wrench or if you jack up the front to take weight off them.
