hey i am currently looking to lift my 96 sierra more to clear tyres, all i can seem to find is 2' suspension and 2' body lift.. is there any bigger suspension lifts out there? im looking for 3' or 4' springs?

You don't want more lift than 2 + 2. That's plenty to clear a 31" tyre, which is the most you can gear and run reliably on a coiler anyway. If you want to run more tyre than that, just start cutting.

Low is the new lift. :D

I know this sounds like I'm being a smarta$$, but there's so many issues with the geometry of coil sierra suspension there's no good reason to try for more than 2" of suspension lift. even 2" requires caster correction, as an example.
