it most likely has the axles you want since it's a 1 ton 4x4.
as for lift, no don't add a bunch of springs to your pack, it can be done, but would need a longer centering pin.
just buy some blocks for out back, or add a leafs, even zero rates. for the front you can do zero rates, add a leafs or get some rear springs from a k10, YES REAR springs that are 52 inches long and swap them up front, those add about 4 inches or so of lift up front maybe less, and the same can be done out back with 56 inch springs I think it is, like 3/4 ton or 1 ton leaves that are longer.
both spring swaps require moving the hangers, front requires switching sides.
add a leafs or zero rate require you to unbolt the spring pack and then insert the zero rate or add a leaf on the bottom and then reinstall with new centering pins.
