Default 1997 K2500 Burb..need some lift advise

So guys, I want to lift my truck, but just a touch... I don't need a monster or anything, but I don't want to use blocks if possible. I'd like to use rear springs and torsion keys but I can't find 3/4 ton lift springs anywhere for my truck

Anyone have any thoughts? I'd like to do maybe 2-3" for some larger tires, but I don't want to sacrifice my payload capability. In fact, if possible, I'd like to make it a 3500 srw if possible, but looking to lift a bit.

Thanks!

Sky jacker and Pro comp both have lift springs and keys for the 2500. They also have em for the 3500, only thing really different between the 3/4 and one tons back then were the springs, and occasionally the axle depending on the model.

The biggest issue I'm having with Skyjacker is that there's no selection for Suburban, and if you select K2500 the only option is 6lug.....I'll keep trying on that one, and for ProComp I keep only finding 6" lifts....

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
