Lift or Level Kit?????
I need to lift the front end of my 2006 listed below. Anyone have any suggestions for me. I just want to level it out and put some 35" tires on it. What is the bare minimum I need. Any idea on price and where to get itwould help as well.

All of theleveling kits I have seen are 2.5" - 3.5". This is enough to level the truck out and allow you to run 35's without rubbing. A cousin of mine is running the ProComp leveling kit and 315-70-17's with no problems. These tires are equivalent to 35's. Hope this helps.
I have a leveling kit on my truck (not sure hwat brand, was already on when I bought it) and previously had 315/70/17 tires on. No rubbing but i have since put on some 35's and I rub, usually only when I am turning and entering or exiting my driveway or making a sharp turn were the suspension is being worked. The rub is minimal and only rubbing on the mud flaps. Once I get around to removing them I suspect I won't rub as much if at all. Personally though, I would say a 3-4.5 inch lift would be ideal.
If youstick with the stock wheels the leveling kit should be good. If you are planning on new wheels to then go with a four inch kit, the aftermarket wheels have more of an offset then the stocks ones and make it a little more difficult to clear 35's or 315's.
your truck is 2wd, so the 2" leveling kits that everyone is referring to will not get you room for 35s. There are leveling and lift kits for 2wd trucks. My advice is go throught the mags and call a couple of places and ask them questions. Just remember that they want to sell you something.
