8 Inch Pro Comp but want more

Is there any way to add more lift to an 8 inch Pro Comp lift? Has anyone does this? I realize I'll probably need a new track bar but what else would I need. Its an 06 by the way.

yes, there is, add a leveling kit on top of the coils.....there's more you'll have to do, shocks, sway bar links, a few other parts, but yes it's possible, usually the last few added inches are the most expensive........Im learning this now for another 4" of lift is roughly 2k dollars for me.

Yeah the way the Pro Comp 8 inch works is its the 6 inch lift springs with a spacer on the bottom. So would it be better just to get true 8 inch springs and swap them in? I noticed looking through some other posts there are a few people with Pro Comp 10 inch lifts. Just curious what these people have done?

I went with a dual coilover set-up and a Icon adjustable track bar. You can get the same results with a coil spring and a spacer also.
