On a body lift you will have to extend the filler neck and brake lines for sure.
IMO it would be easier to just install a 2" lift front and back. You won't need to extend anything as the stock suspension has 3" of room the extend three the factory suspension

Wait where are you rubbing?
I've done 35s with a level on a few 2500 now and from my experience a body lift won't help with the rubbing
If your rubbing on the lower part of the fender near the drivers door longer control arms should help
