As long as you don't have a 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch installed, then we have a Firestone Ride-Rite kit that will work for you. I recommend installing the Ride-Rite Kit, # F2445, because you can use the Ride-Rite Lift Spacers for a 6 inch Lift, # F2375. These two parts will accommodate the 6 inch lift on your truck.
The Ride-Ride kit will not fit if you have a 5th wheel hitch or gooseneck hitch installed in the bed. I'm not sure what type of lift you have, but if your truck is still using the factory leaf springs, then I recommend adding the RoadActive Suspension Kit, # RAS4611TD. This kit mounts on the leaf spring stack, so it will not interfere with a 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch and it can be adjusted for lighter or heavier loads such as towing or daily driving. These are our best options for trucks with a 6 inch lift if they have a 5th wheel or goosneck hitch installed.
