Is it just me or what? I can't seem to find many bodylifts that work with the megacab and when I do find one, it's only 3". I've found 1.5" and 2" but they only seem to be for smaller cabs.

Any options under 3" that are recommended? Preferably with bumper brackets and everything.

As long as it's the same number of body mounts, why would a regular body kit not work? It's the same truck, just longer. Right?

Your guess is good as mine. I emailed one company but no real help.

You should count up the number of body mounts on there, and see if it matches up. Bumper mounts would be the same as a 2500 I'd assume, so you'd have to get a 2500 body lift, but that's the only real difference I think

I found where zone sells the body lift blocks separate. I thought about buying the shorter ones and ordering some bolts and cutting them down to match the blocks. I'm not sure about the bumpers but I could probably figure out a way to make brackets to raise them. I just don't know for sure if the blocks would work and I hate to get started and find out stuff won't work.

I haven't had time yet to look into the number of mounts yet

Maybe just buy one block to see if it matches, then buy a kit if the number of blocks match, or buy extra blocks. I wouldn't diy it, sounds like too much of a pain.
