Have to replace leaf hangers, time for a lift?

I got under my ranger this weekend and discovered that the leaf spring hangers on the left side of my ranger are all rotted out and that my right side ones aren't much better. So I figured that I'd replace all the hangers, shackles, bushings, etc. But I figured that while I'm in there, I might as well give her a little bit of a lift. Are there any hanger brackets that are a little taller to give me a couple inches, or am I going to have to put blocks or a leaf in for that?

Thanks,

Steve
 
no hangers that are taller, this is a great time to do chevy 64 leafs. check out the tech library for answers to any questions you will have and good luck, i know i love mine!
 
I've been thinking of doing a 4inch suspension (rough country, maybe?) along with a 3 inch body lift. And perhaps I'd get a 1/2" lift shackle as well to go in when I replace the leave hangers. I know that I'll need to extend my brake lines and steering shaft, but what else will I need to correct for? I imagine my steering might need some different bushings, or are these going to be included in the kit. What about my driveshaft?

Truck is a 1995 Ranger XLT w/ extended cab. 3.0 OHV with the 5speed.
