Thanks to everyone for the help around here. I did all three mods in one day and it took about three hours total. My original measurements from the ground to the top of the wheel well were 32.5" in the front and 31.5" in the back. After the aal and shackles the back was up to 35.5". Then I did a TT up front to make the truck level at 35.5" all the way around. The whole process took about three hours with myself and a friend. Also, I still have stock tires (235/75/16) but I plan to add 33x12.5's. For the hell of it I stuck on a buddies 33x15.5 tire and they fit (barely).
Heres some pictures after the mods, if you want to see the truck before

And from the back showing the leaf springs and shackles. Had to remove both back tires to do the AAL, but I was able to leave the spare attached.
Next to my mom's 4 door infinity QX4

You shouldn't have too much trouble fitting 33's on there as long as they aren't really wide. Another member had some 33x10.5 ( I think it was 10.5) on his 02 sport at stock height and only rubbed at tight turns
