I'm looking at lift kits for my 2010 1500 4x4 and I can't find anything bigger than 6". There's 1 kit from fts thats an 8" kit but its like double the price just for an extra 2". Anyone found a bigger kit or combined multiple lift components for a bigger kit? I want like 9-10" of lift and to avoid a body lift. Right now mine has bilstein 5100's maxed out on 35x12.50 with laramie take offs and 2" spacers.

6” and Bils maxed are about it to be honest….fts is one of the few that goes beyon. Bodylift is really your next option….even then, 3” is pretty much max before you have to start looking into custom stuff.

Coming from experience don’t do it.
I had a zone 6” front 5” rear kit then I added the eibach 3 1/2” struts and 1 1/2” rear spacer. It was big but the truck didn’t enjoy it. The ride suffered and it wasn’t enjoyable to drive. If you want big get a solid axle 2500. The 1500’s just don’t like to be that high. I’ve had plenty of trucks in my shop getting lowered back down after maxing out their height. I get wanting to go bigger but save yourself the money and invest in bigger shocks. Set into the 2.5 coil over world and thank me later

If you're a mall crawling retard like myself and just want a big *** lift, what's your issue with adding a body lift?

For a 10" lift, your only somewhat reasonable option is a bracket lift + body lift with adjustable struts. @Quick_Shifter is right with IFS trucks not riding great with 3+ inches of suspension lift though.

I've got 3" spacers as a temporary lift. It's not ideal and I'm counting down till my u-joints give out. LOL
