well thats plain bs b/c u can get a 7.5" 2wd lift from Fabtech and i think one company makes a 4wd lift over 12".

neways, do y'all think a 37x14x16 IROK would look ok on the truck? i think im gonna have to go with the 16" rim b/c i cant find a rim above 16" with my size bolt pattern (5 on 135) unless i do some extra digging

To the original poster....are you getting a custom lift, cause I know they don't make kits that high (12") for a 4x2?
Both the trucks in the pic are 4x2 and yes Bulletproof suspensions makes a 12" and a 16" all suspension lift for 4x2s...

What size tires/rims do you have? $9k is a little to steep for my pockets! At least I already have my tires and rims.
