need some lift advice

[racer1044]

I have an 89 ext cab 4wd ranger 5 speed 2.9. REcently bought a used 6 inch skyjakcer kit that came with beam drop brackets coils and radius arm drop brackets and pitman arm. I bought a dana 35 ttb front end and a 8.8 out of a 94 ranger. My question is what is the best way to get the lift out of the rear. I have new spring hangers front and rear with new leaf springs so I dont want to buy new leafs. I know of the beltech shackels to get 2 inches that way but should i go add a leaf or blocks?

I found a skykjacker 4.5 lift block kit on summit but im not sure if thats 4.5 total or 4.5 stacked on the factory block. Im not a big fan of stacking blocks.

Well I live in the u.p. of michigan so the springs were toast as well as the hangers. My only problem is with an add a leaf im looking at around 2 inches and the lift shackel is 2 inches. I just want to make sure the rear is going to sit level with the front. MY other question is im looking at lift blocks on summit. the skyjacker 4.5 lift block they list is that stacked on top of the factory block to get the 4.5 or the lift block itself will give the lift.

What im trying to do is find the actual part numbers for the skyjacker rear lift blocks or add a leafs for there 6 inch lift. I read the instuctions and it just says install the blocks or replace the leafs.
