    Less than 3" if you want to stay affordable.

    What's your budget? What's your needs? What's your wants?

    $1k just for parts? Or does that have to include labor for install?

    Tires need to be included in that $1k also?

    There's the OME kit with AAL for around $700. You'll have enough left to just about buy LR UCA's to go with it.

    Then go with a 275 tire and not have to worry much about any rubbing.

    Light Racing upper control arms so you can get your alignment numbers correct without maxing out the factory adjustments.

    So you aren't going to fit 295s without cutting shit and hitting stuff with a hammer.

    At stock height you just cut and hammer a lot more, at 3" lift.. slightly less so.

    Here's a different question.

    What are you trying to correct that the truck will not do now? You know, functionally?

    If you can't wheel roads you describe with 265s or 275s, 295's won't help.
