Welcome to FRF.

Nice thread jack.

You will need a 4 inch rough country lify or a 3 inch body lift.

You will have to regear to 4.10 gears because I'm pretty sure you are running 7.5 open 3.45 gear axel. Your going to want a 8.8 l/s 4.10 gear axel.

You can run 33s on your stock rims but I would get 15x10

Body lift = $250 with no gain in ground clearance

4 inch rough country suspension + new shocks + new cambers = $600 roughly

8.8 l/s 4.10 axel from a ranger = $250-$300 depending on where you go.

Tires will range from $500-$1500 depending on where you go and what you get.
