There is no body lift for it its a unibody,You can only go a body lift on something that has a body and frame but even then its a bad idea.Look at our vendors on here for a suspension lift zone is the cheapest.

Been a while since we''ve had a body lift thread lol. What is your budget? You can do a 2 inch suspension lift fairly cheap.

I feel a spacer/shackle lift would work well for you.
