try doing a search for lifts. There are a lot of topics in reguards to lifts. But i think that that set up will allow for 37. Not sure tho. Like i said try doing a search.

depends on the rims. but if you get a 3" bodylift, and a 3" spacer kit, you will probably have to cut a little out of your fenders to clear 37's. Also if your going to offroad it alot, it'll probably rub alot, but for street driving it'll probably be okay. Also this is going to put alot of stress on your axles. so be prepared to replace alot of parts. You will also need to look into regearing you axles..but if you don't have enough money for the "proper lift" i doubt you'll have enough money for the gears....it'll be sluggish.....but your axles are going to take a beating

So you want to half-*** the parts that connect your truck to your axles? Save up your money for a while and do it right.
