Another option, if you have the time, money, know how...is a shackle flip kit.  I have a six inch lift now.  Four inches of block and two in the springs.  I plan to get rid of the blocks.  A Shackle flip will give you less axle wrap than blocks.  Also, it allows for the use of flatter springs which willl give a better ride and a more flexible suspension.  Check out www.offroaddesign.com.  They have a kit that will give you four inches in flipping the shackles.  Then add another two in the springs for six...so on.
