Devon, you have to ask yourself why you want a 3 inch lift. Becuase of the articulation of the rangie, there is a limit in how long the spring can be. If they are too long they will bend like a banana and pop out the side. So the way to get a 3 inch lift is to make the springs stiffer rather than longer. This gives a harsher ride, less wheel articulation, and causes all sorts of issues with castor angles and prop shafts. So other alternatives to spring lifts are often preferable, but you need to work out what you are try to achieve before you can look at alternatives.
