I like my fabtech 6 inch basic kit. Solid kit in my opinion and relatively cheap. 1500 new from local shops here in fl. I run it on my truck.

If thats too much do a leveling kit like 1-2.5'' $50-200

I'd do a -4/-7 lift. Is it a 4WD?

you could run the 5" RCX for under a grand easily and throw some 33's are there and be good to go.

if you want to go 6" lift later, just get the 2.5" ccm leveling kit.

you need to think about the future when selecting wheels. Some lifts require a certain backspacing. If your gonna stick with leveled then it doesnt matter.
