ProComp has a 5" lift. Do you know of any difference between that and there 6"?? Website is down right now so I cant look it up.

Yes you can keep the factory hitch with a body lift, the kit comes with spacers to fill the gap between the bumper and the hitch... HERE'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

The only problem with that is now you're hitch is going to sit 3" higher off of the ground, so you'd have to get a "drop ball" type of receiver, or everything you tow will be sitting at an angle. I know it's not a big deal... just something extra to buy.
