Weener,
I think you worded it wrong silly...but to fit 295s...33's, the cheapest route would be a body lift, or spindles.....even the 2 inches leveling kit from Fabtech might work....Dave

I would say the 3" body because if you get the fabtech, it's only a 2" in the front, and it says that you will be able to fit 285. So probably the body or spindle lift would beyour best bet.

Do you know how awesome it would be if you had a 33" suspension lift on your truck? Think of the possibilities....no more waiting in traffic jams...haha, but is a lift that high even legal?
