Go with the 4" lift. You can clear 37's. Sell the 2.5 " spacer lift and use the money for a 1" body lift. Since TF lifts run tall you will get about 6" total and it will still be huge.

Less drive line issues that way.

With an Auto, you may need driveshafts. Control arms might be nice at that height. It is a pretty bare kit. I would look at the Theraflex kits.

Wouldn't drive as good if you didn't go ahead and put front lower control arms and adjustable track bars on.
I have the lift, and I also have those parts. Those parts cost almost as much as the lift.
