    I have a few mods
    for the factory 16" wheels yes you need spacers to clear the maxtrac spindles. the 17s should be ok.

    1" spacers should be fine. my aftermarket wheels have 4.5bs and they clear the spindles

    I have a few mods
    it really depends on how much money you want to spend on your lift, Ive dumped about $3500 into my midtravel lift

    but there are a bunch of different budget lifts that will get the job done like OME (old man Emu), bilstein shocks and eibach coils, toytec lift, or go full midtravel with coilovers, ucas and leaf springs.

    for the front you have different options like:
    - bigger shocks and bigger coils (OME/Eibach/bilstein 5100s)
    - coilovers (expensive but adjustable)
    - spacers (stay away from these)
    - lift spindles (only for 2wd, maxtrac/camburg/TC i believe offer some)

    for the rear
    - new leaf packs that provide lift (dakar/allpro/alcan)
    - AAL (Add a leaf, provides lift)
    - blocks (yuk)
    - dont forget longer shocks (fox/king/icon/etc)


    some of the big name brands suspension dealers are
    - ICON Vehicle Dynamics
    - FOX
    - KING
    - Allpro
    - Total Chaos

    here are some links
