Since purpl ain't seen a pic of olyelr in a while...



Here is a 3" suspension and 3" body with 35's. Only rub was on the control arms due to using the stock wheels with lots of backspacing...






What size wheels are you using? If they are 10" wide I am almost positive you will get rubbing against the back portion of the front fenders when turning/flexing. If you get a properly backspaced 8" wide wheel, you may just clear everything (including the control arms).
