Performance Accessories Performance Accessories
makes a 3" body lift, which most, if not all guys seem to install.

Check around for the best price.

I've looked at performance accessories lifts and I've emailed them. What I want to know is will they work since I've got the 2.5 spacers up front and the aal in back and it's 4x4. I emailed them to see if this setup would work and never got a response back.

the setup will work. the body lift does nothing to the suspension, it raises the body up. The only issue with the body lift is if you have a manual transmission. you have to modify something to make it work.

I'm also looking at getting a set of the psi restyling fende flares. Would there be a 3 in gap from the bottom of the flare to the bumper

jkeaton is correct. There is no gap because it includes brackets to relocate the bumpers to have the same look as before.
