Default Lift Kit Options

Anyone know what my options for a lift kit for a 1995 Chevy K2500 ext. cab longbed are. looking for 2-4" lift. I have not found many options for my truck and am not sure what ones would actually work. have not found any body lifts for diesels. Also know the 2 piece drive shaft limits my options. Anyone know who makes some that will fit.

When I was researching this a while ago I found that their were lift kits but:

By installing a body lift the aerodynamics of the engine were altered and cooling of the engine suffered. Thus the lift kits were not labeled as compatible with 6.5 engines.

I have not tried it but my understanding is that another lift kit for the same body would work.
