This might be more than the OP is looking to do but it's good to know what options there are. Right out of college, I bought a new 2005 Nissan Titan. I liked to go play in the desert but the truck wasn't set up very well for it. The suspension would bounce and bottom out too often. So, I got the mod itch and upgraded the suspension.
My suspension upgrade includes Swayaway front coil-overs and replacement upper control arms for the front. This allowed for a little lift in the front to add a slightly taller tire than stock. In the rear, I replaced the load leaf spring with a Deaver spring pack and the rear shocks with Donahoes for the added length. This added height to the rear to keep the stock rake and added flexibility to the rear. The parts cost about $2,200 in 2006.
Overall, what this did was provide a huge upgrade from the original Rancho suspension in terms of off-road drivability, more room for a taller tire (34" from 33" stock), better quality/longevity (180k miles so far), and only about 2.5" of height. I would say this package is comparable to the performance of a Ford Raptor without the wide body.
There are a lot of options out there from Fox, King, Bilstein, Swayaway, etc. You don't have to have a tall truck to have a good suspension. Also, you can have a tall truck with a bad suspension. OP is doing the right things by asking questions. Look at what these manufacturers offer on their websites to decide what you want to do. Then shop hard for a good price. You may be able to do the install yourself with a little help from some friends.
