A body lift lifts the entire body equally using 1 to 3 inch spacers of equal height. I think you were looking at a leveling kit.

X2 or 3 or 4 on the RC 1.25". Comes with the shifter adapter for the 6spds, and also has brackets for raising the stock rear bumper. I personally would not do a 2-3" body lift, as I do not like the huge gaps. But the smaller gaps I can live with.
