Theres a multitude of different ways to lift 4x4's All depends on several key factors as to which way you do it
Total height increase Intended tyre size increase Intended PRIMARY usage & secondary usage Vehicle brand & exact model Budget
All 5 above factors will have a significant effect on the "best practice" option.
Where are you parking it when not in use = shed roof height Total lift = possible cert needed = mods to drive shaft/brake lines /diff breather systems/ steering, speedo adjustment = ruc accuracy etc
Not hard but definantly needs a bit of realistic planning to get it right

Most small lifts on older 4x4's are simply swapping out the body to chassis blocks for taller blocks. If you can do that would be easy=ish and wouldn't effect your suspention if only going 1" or 2" & wouldn't need a cert. I suspect yours could be a monoque chassis so that option may not work. Taller springs will limit total downwards travel & proberly need a cert plus wheel alignment.
