They don't make any specific height promises, and while most people experience about 1" of lift, some get 2-3" and there's nothing you can really do about it. I'm simply adapting my plans to accommodate.
At least I can say that in the end I'll have a 2-3" lift with new springs, shocks, sliders instead of shackles, SYE, adjustable track bar, and control arm bushings all for less than some "lift kits" cost.

You can buy a good quality 3" full leaf/coil/shock/hardware lift kit for under $500 from Rustys you will need an adj. track bar with. But I ran that very kit alone for over a year. Then used for an upgrade to 4 1/2" of lift still really no sag after 4 1/2 yrs.
