Default Can I use spacers on a 2001 w/ off road?

i am looking to do some work on my 2001. The trucks not labeled, but I found that it had the off-road package alreadt. Can I use coil spring spacers (leveling kit) to get another inch or two> Will this require a new track bar? Please let me know. I would love the extra clearance but am only running a 32 inch tall tire.

You can run up to 37" with spacers but will rub if you do a complete full turn, but then again 315 70 17 (35") look very clean. I think the "Offroad" was the best so far since it came with higher springs, 410 gears, low gear transfer case, 17" wheel, and 360 vin"Z".
