Rancho and 35s would be sweet. With this you don't have to worry about and premature wear on the front end, like the leveling kit would create.

The 4" Rancho is about $2300 to 2500 installed, a 2 or 2 1/2" Autospring leveling kit is about $180 to 200 installed, a lot less if you do it yourself. If you can afford it though go with the Rancho or the Fabtech 6" for about the same price as the Rancho. I've been lucky and have been running a 2 1/2" Daystar leveling kit for almost 4 yrs and over 50k miles with no problems so far. 5100 series Bilstein shock's are another option that let's you gain some height in the front by changing the shock's height settings. Four of these shock's will cost close to $400 buck's and you need a spring compressor to install the front's.
