6" lift w/ 35's. want to clear 37's

im running 35's with a 6" pro comp lift on my 05 fx4. my buddy has some 37's for sale and i can get them for a good price. my levelin kit was removed when the pro comp lift was installed and my truck is completely level now. budget-wise, whats the best option to clear the 37's? not a big fan of body lifts but id consider if thats the best way to go.

A BL is a good way to get 37's on with a 6" lift. Throw on some nerf bars (if you dont already have them) and that would hide most of the frame.

Add a leaf + leveling kit

Add a leaf + 5100 leveling shock

Pretty much your only ''cheap'' option.

Josiah on here has his truck on 37's with an 8 inch lift. I am running 8 inches next year with 35's and I think the season after i'll do up 37's or 38's

you should be able to run 37's on six inches of lift. i ran 37's on just a 3" body lift and aftermarket keys.

Rear shock won't give you any lift. Just buy the front shock and an add a leaf.
