Default need help with used lift

i have a friend who has a 6 inch lift in his 4x4 ranger. he has the type of lift that drops all the front end componets down. torsion bars, spindles, steering controls, stab bar. and has leaf packs in the rear. how would he getb more lift out of his kit? i know adding a 2 inch block in rear, but what about front? the spindles have extentions on the top, their just stock spindles with adapters on top to lower them, could he just get longer extentions?

front isn't

Spindle lift will not work on a 4x4. The next way to move up will be SAS. Unless you want to body lift.
