I’m in the same boat….. almost.
I’m picking up a used 2005 (same as yours) and this thing has a 3” body lift, suspension might be up a few inches/have to check when I get it. I’m throwing on 24s wrapped in 35s, however I do have 2” wheel spacers that I’ll more then likely run. I’m prepared to trim spots that are required as I’m pretty sure they going to rub.
