Default Lift kit 6"

Is there anyone that made lift kit himself??
And how to do?

Forgive me if I have mistakes in writing,
because English just does not go for me!

All I know is that a 6" kit drops the entire front axle and suspension. I have often wondered if there was a way to make this kit. Even welding an entire frame section from another blazer to the bottom of the existing frame. I am sure creating this, unless your fab skills are top notch, would be virtually impossible.

IF you want to do a 6" lift homemade, I think that you would be better off doing a Solid Axle Swap, because I am pretty sure building the items for that would be much easier
