I have a Skyjacker kit on both my 72 K10 and my 99 TJ. I had no real problems or complaints with either of them.

I had a real nice write up on the 6" all spring lift from shyjacker and have not been able to find the link, I do have a hard copy some where though. The springs were installed on a 72 K20.

Tuff Country has the current flexy design.Skyjacker offers "Soft-Ride" springs.They would do you just fine.Skyjacker has been around since about the time your truck was built.Good stuff.
