Default cheapest 6 inch lift?

what is the cheapest 6 inch lift or what is the cheapest way to attain 6 inches of lift while keeping the cv angles good? I'm not too concerned with ride quality, i just dont want to have a sloppy front end.

I will sell you mine for 800. It comes with full lift rear leaf spring and everything needed to lift your truck 6 inches. Its a skyjacker and it also comes with a dual steering stabalizer. If you want some rims and tires i have those to. I removing it so i can lower it. Im going for hp now. THe lift has never been offroading it was just for show. Pm me if your interested. I also have pictures of it.

For which truck in your sig? Actually they would be relatively the same kits for both.

cheapest way to get about 6" torsion keys, and a body lift. But not the best looking by any means. Assuming you mean cheap as in price not quality

Yes they do. They put stress on your ball joints among other things. The ride will suffer.

Absolutely it will, but you asked how to get to 6" cheap. I would just do a suspension lift, you can get a good price on a lift for your truck., or only do a 3" body, but like you said if it is 6 your after then do the suspension lift, looks 10x better IMO.
