Can I do anything else?

So, I bought the superlift and now I have to part with it before I even get it put on. I needed the money. Anyway, I have a bodylift now and was wondering what else I could add to it to get a little more height/ level it out. So far, the only thing I know of is cranking the T bars. Is there anything else I can do? I have a '00 XLT 4x4.

Iv'e heard of spindles, add-a-leaf, drop shackles, pre-keys...does any of this apply to me?

the spindles and pre keys dont apply to you, but the rest do. You can get the beltec 6400 shackles to or chevy lowering shackles there the same thing. The add a leafs work but stiffing the ride. The best I've heard from people on here is to swap the to the explorer leaves from a junk yard. You could also add lift blocks if you dont already have them on your truck. Lots of stuff in the suspension tec fourm

AAL, drop shackles, and lift blocks are componets for the rear, correct? So, what do I do about the front, I can only crank the T bars so much? ARGH...this lift stuff is confusing the heck out of me.
