personally, i'd do a torsion twist, spindle lift, spring over axle, and a 3" body lift and put some 35s on. Also, if you plan to off road with it, having 2wd and a rear locker is better than 2wd with no locker.
 






IMO you should go with the 33's. The V6 has good power but if you go to the 35's you might end up spending a ton more money on engine mods to spin the 35's over obstacles. Try and search the forum for some pics so you can see what it would look like.

Good luck, post pics when you get the work done!!!!

No, my truck is in my sig. I have no idea where to get the kit, as far as I've heard they are hard to find.

Our V6's have plenty of power for 35" but if you have 3.27's or 3.73 you might have a problem.
 






well ive been looking and i want to do a SOA but i cant find a accurate price i found it as low as $100 and as high as $1090 and that is a huge gap in price so i was wondering if someone can help me out bc if i can figure the SOA it would help me out a zillion
