Are you trying to lift the truck or just have more payload capability?Because I would focus more on the rear of the truck if you are going for the latter.

I think on Pre-98 truck w/ the TTB you could use front springs to lift it like 2"... I dont think rear springs would work... Might as well do a chevy spring swap...
