when i got mine it had a 3" susp lift & 30x9.5 tyres & they was fine with just a little arch trimmed

if you do a 2" body lift you will need longer brake hoses & you will need to do a slight adjustment on the transfer lever (thats all i had to do on mine anyway)

you'll also need to extend the steering column if you lift the body.

you will need hoses anyway with a lift above 50mm
