I was told that it was a 6' lift but Im not sure. It is tall enough to fit 35s in the back and 35 in front although it rubs so they put 33s instead. Shocks and coil springs are shot and need to be replaced.

Not sure if the pictures went through. So If anyone can let me know how to add pictures along with the question that would be great.

Based on the colors only, I would guess Skyjacker. A SOA plus blocks would give you all of 6" in the rear.
 






The radius arms and brackets are Superlift. Coil springs could be Rancho or Skyjacker based upon the color.
 






Awesome! thanks. Any ideas on type of coil replacements?
 






You can replace them with any 5.5-6" coil springs. What type of ride are you looking for; soft, medium, firm? Off road much? Mostly street?
Don't go any taller, the TTB suspension is maxed out at 6", unless you have cut and turned beams.
Shocks are also a personal choice. I prefer gas shocks, but its up to you and your budget.
Crawl under the front and carefully check those drop brackets for cracks at the bolt tabs. I can see in the pictures they were repaired at one time. Common for Superlift.
