Minimum - 3"/2" leveling kit and running boards have to go.
Recommended - The 3.5" / 2.5" obviously gives a little more lift. I highly recommend that you replace the lower ball joints, and upper control arms in the front, as well as the lower ball joints or control arms in the rear. The lift puts extra stress on these components, and if they are already worn, you could have a catastrophically dangerous failure on the highway. You might as well replace your struts and inner and outer tie rods at this point, you are going to need an alignment anyway.
I am running the 3.5" / 2.5" lift.
I replaced control arms and ball joints, front & rear.
Installed new strut / spring assemblies as well as tie rod ends.
35"x12.5"x17" mud terrains.
Zero rubbing, forwards or reverse, full lock.
Makes for TONS of ground clearance and a really aggressive look.
Thing is a beast in the snow!
