Default Lift for 99 Silv. (less than 6 inches!!)

I am looking for the cheapest lift kit that still has great quality. The only thing is, I am looking for only a couple (3 or so) inches of lift. Just enough for me to **** of my wife by spending money on bigger tires...maybe 33's !!

I was originally thinking body lift, but that won't help me clear some ditches I might encounter while "mildly" off roading. So scratch that idea.

Please provide website links if possible. I am still new to some of the company names and might not recognize their initials.

THANX

Also, looking for least amount of "damage" (cutting/drilling) required.

SkyJacker has a 3" kit and Rancho has a 4" that can be cranked up to 6" later on down the road if you want. The 3" is in the $950 range, the Rancho in the $1500 range.

Hey - Have you thought of turning up torsion bars and putting blocks in the rear. That should get you a couple of inches for less than $100. I work with a guy who already has 33s on a stock 2003 Z71.

Could you give me a link to the Rancho? I get lost on their page.
