fabtech seems to be popular for the 6" lift, unless you want to do a 3" bodylift and leveling kit. that will clear 35"s also.

suspension lifts look waaaaaay better... IMO... but welcome. and i read on another post a guy was wanting some 17x8 rims and hammer told him go with min of 9 if im not mistaken... not sure what the stocks are but i would think 9 inch rims would hold fine if thats what they are
