2005 Z71 Tahoe looking for some lift

[anixon]

Team, I am new to this forum but not to forums. I have read through and searched for threads relating to what I am in search of but could not find anything that answered my questions. It seems as if there is alot of combinations of parts to get what I am looking although I have no plans on any further suspension work.

So I have a 2005 Z71 Tahoe 4WD and have cranked the torsion keys all the way but its not enough for me. I am running ~33" nitto terra grapplers on stock wheels.

I am wanting to lift it another inch or two with new shocks. I'm at ~133,00 and don't think the shocks have ever been replaced. I don't want to lift it 6" now or in the future. Am looking to spend around 300 for new shocks and a bigger ride. Cali lean is an option.


Please let me know your thoughts, sorry if there is someone already with this thread but I could not find an answer as to which parts and kit to look for as for what I am wanting.

Thanks!

Yea check out the thread listed above and get some ebay lift keys/spacers. For yours I recommend 1.5" spacers and then get Bilstien 5100s. Good to go and keep the same tire size. I do like the light bar and it looks pretty sick. I would do one on mine if I put a cargo roof rack.

Sweet, I read through the thread, good stuff.
Looking right now, but which lengths do I need? it seems like there are different lengths for the same part number.
And 1.5" spacers front and rear?

The spacers are for the rear only, it's the after market torsion keys that give your front lift. For example
