haha pictures never hurt. but yeah i think for what you want lift and and good set of tires. lots of people run goodyear KM2'S. but its really personal preference. for going "anywhere" lockers are good for getting that job done and armor (bumpers,sliders, ect.) OH! and lights offroad lights and rock lights are a good thing to have too

Unless you start with the lift, you won't be able to get much larger tires to fit. I have 3" ICON lift. I went with the Total Chaos upper control arms ICON coilovers, Stage 1 in the rear as well Longer coils and shocks. Consider some sliders at some point as well.

Hope this give you some ideas, I have had this truck going on 10 years, a work in progress. I have taken it into some serious off-road parks and have not had any problems. These trucks are really capable without big tires and lockers.
