Default 2006 Lift And Tires

so i got two questions for yall, im trying to decide what lift to get for my truck the bds 6 inch front 5 inch rear kit, or the superlift 6 inch kit, i spend alot of time offroad with my truck so i wanted to get something that will hold up to some abuse, looking to pick one of the two up when i get back from afghanistan later this year, the other question is how much tire can the front half shafts hold up to, in the mud alot and i dont wana have to put new half shafts in once a week any advice would be great

the less angle on the shafts the better, in my own oppinion anything over 4 to 5 inches is asking for problems with an independent front suspension setup, others have done it and maybe they can tell you more. if you want big then maybe you should look at doing a 3 in suspension and 2 in body, but be careful combining lift kits. with 5 or 6 inches you could fit 37"s on your truck, but i must say without a solid front axle your are gonna have some issues here and ther with anything larger than a 35"
