Search the web. There's some kits out there but you would come out cheaper doing it yourself. Search on Jere lots of guys have done it. Also search pirate4x4

full size chevy.com has ALOT of info on this subject, as well as gmfull size. com
you could either make your own brackets or check out offroadunlimited .com is a more complete kit and gives you 3'' of lift with a stock spring. about 700 bucks
sky manufacturing.. about 350 bucks is less complete ( only the hangers. but is beefy and gives you 6'' of lift with a stock spring
you will need to run cross over steering. theres not a safe way around it
and unless you plan on changing transfer cases you are limited to a ford axle ( drivers side differential. were chevy axles were passenger side)
