EDS,

I think you're looking at either 1) a suspension lift that will accomadate your 35" tires or 2) a combo body /suspension lift. I wouldn't suggest going over 1" for a body lift due to the complications you'll run into with cables/hoses, radiator,steering shaft angle, & etc. Suspension lifts are better engineered for the 3-4" lift ranges. Also anything over a 1" body lift looks cheesy...IMO <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

Just my .02

a 4" suspension will fit 33's, and I believe a 6" will fit your 35's. You can do a combo of 4" sus. and 2" body, ot just do a 6" suspension. but yeah, increasing your body lift creats problems with hoses and stuff like that...I think fabtech has a 6" suspension lift.

first off you will not fit 35's without at least 6inchs of lift. 7-9 is better for offroading and rub. I don't think you would want to go over three inchs in body lift(unsafe and illegal in many states). you can go with a three inch coilover or 3inch coilspacer and a three inch body lift, pinch weld mod and trim the bottom of the bumber and run 8inch wide wheels and be okay. But your truck will be a dog with stock gearing and new gears are not cheap. red
