I am thinking 6" suspension and 2" body? I looked under mine and I can't see the frame and cable like you can in this pic, that's why I think there is a body lift too. This is about the height and tire size I am going for on my truck. It's a 2002 2500 HD if that helps.

Looks like a rough country 6" suspension lift and probably a 3" body lift.

If you have the money stay away from a body lift. Specially if you have a new truck.

I'd rather cut/BFH it. You can probably get an extra inch or two in tire height and width with a few properly placed hits with a mallet

I did the 2" torsion keys and leveled it and have 33's tires now. I am shooting for 37's, but was told without the body lift in addition to the suspension lift, you have to whack the fenders some. Guess I will be busting out the Sawzall.

37's with a 6" lift on a 2500 should definitely be doable.

Wheel offset will play a big role here

Small angle grinder and mallet will get you pretty far. Spot welding will get you farther

The pinch weld is normally the problem with trucks

If you've got even just the slightest bit more money, I've heard great things about Bilstein's 5100's on the front for leveling purposes. they're adjustable through like 4" I think and will improve, notdamage your front suspension's off road abilities

Think they are only adjustable 2 inches, not 4. They do improve ride quality though

Get some spacers in the front and a block in the back and you should push 37's.

For example my Titan has a 3" body with 3" spacer in the front and a 3" block in the back and i fit 35's with no rubbing.

Are you referring to coil spacers and body lift? Why would you want stock suspension handling 37" tires?
