Lift for 35's? 37's?

Curious what amount of lift would be necessary for a 91 solid axle truck to run 35x12.50's? or maybe even 37x12.50's? Thanks in advance.

I'd say about 16" to 17" maybe even more I'm not sure.

Geez 16". So... that would take a combination of lift kits. Might just stick w/ the 31's and no lift.

No actually it'll be a 91 body on an 85 frame. So I was curious what springs would be necessary? I've been reading through some posts, and it seems like people are running between 4-6" to achieve 35's. That seems a little more do-able.

Above 35s lift is irrelevant as you will have to tub the firewall and trim other sheet metal.

You can fit 35s on 3" leaf springs if it is SAS'd.

Thanks for all of your input guys. I was hoping to get it done w/ minimal lift to keep the cg low. 3-6" sounds good. If some wheel/fender/bed trimming is necessary then that'll be fine too.
