    Lifted, Slider, stock rack, rear mounted winch in stock bumper, brush guard, Sound system, ipod to car, tint, wheel spacers, 285 bfg AT,
    big chunk will have to go out of the front bumper (if its stock) the body mount will have to be chopped, and the pinch weld trimmed and beat to flush with a big hammer, cut most of the inner fender out.

    Rear most of the guys run those 1 inch lift rear blocks that also relocate the axle 3/4 of an inch i hear that this really helps a lot. some of the rear fenders will have to be trimmed as well,

    The wheel backspacing and width of the tire come into play a lot in the front end of the truck, the thinner the tire the less cutting and the stock wheels with 1.25 inch spacers are perfect or i think its 4.5 or 4.25 inch backspacing on aftermarket wheels.

    I am running about 1 inch of lift and 33's i could take it all the way down to stock and still not rub at full lock. i have the body mount chop.

    Good luck! I have 33.5" (295/70/17) and I am just barely ok at full turn/ lock-out even with trimming like a mofo. I cant imagine 35s.

    On the street I'm fine but I have yet to go wheelin with the new tires and I'm sure I'm going to have major rubbing issues in the rear and climbing rocks at full lock.

    I had 35"s on like 4 inch of lift. I went back to 33"s as the gains were not worth my daily driving.

    You will only need new UCA's if you can't get your alignment back into spec.

    I say do the lift get the tires go and have it aligned if it won't go beck into spec then spend the money for UCA's.
