Obviously, the best way to go is with the Rize or CST, but if money is an option and you are trying to fit 37's, here are a couple other options.

Fabtech with leveling kit or body lift.
Pro-Comp or any other 6" with body lift.

while a 6" with some kind of spacer to get 8" is an option, why not go all out get the 8" and add the spacers for 10". If money is not a problem do a rize 12" and possibly a small spacer....

my vote is for Rize, I like the looks of the kit. Both CST and rize are high quality though.

If you go with a 6" lift and already plan on getting 2" out of it with spacers or coilovers, I'm almost willing to bet down the road you'll want even more lift. Which will leave you only with a body lift. Do yourself a favor and get the Rize 8" now, that way when you want more lift you can just add a spacer.

But actually now that I think about it, I believe it's a 6" with a 2.5" Spacer.
