How much lift,
Do i need to clear some 37's, and what is a cost effective lift kit in that lift range? I would like something that is going to ride better than this does now also ( i have 7 leafs per pack in the rear , it is ROUGH, but it would hold up a house)

What year truck?
On a 3rd gen you can run 37s with a leveling kit(some have) and easily with a 4-4.5" lift.
Im running 35s right now with my 4.5" superlift, but plan on stepping up to 37s next time I need tires...

I can't run bigger than what I have with my 4.5" lift.
I have 315's that measure just a millimeter under 35".
It depends on the truck, as I know of many 2nd genners running 37s with the same lift.

It will be going on a 95 , I read on here somewhere that one of the lifts a certain company makes is supposed to be a 4.5" lift IIRC , but it ends up lifting the truck almost 6" , I just can't remember what company that was.

Well I do know my skyjacker is "supposed to be" a 4.5" lift, and most people that have it say they can run 35's perfectly. I ran 35's on just 2" spacer in the front. I have 36x12.5x16's on with the lift, and I can tell you I can go taller. Definately a 37, 38 might rub. Funny thing is, I was running the 36's for a while on just the spacer until I could get my lift.
Later,
