lots of different ways you could go about that, before someone yells at you, just check out the FAQ at the top of the modified JK tech page.

but to answer your question in short, you could get a 2.5-3" lift and cut the fenders, trim or fold the pinch seam in the rear, or you could get like a 4" lift without trimming i think would do it. but you will definately want to regear, depending on if you have an auto or standard prolly go with 5:13's either way, add some gussets to your axles if you wheel it, get a superchips, a rear tire carrier as a 37 will kill the tailgate otherwise.
thats a start

Don't forget front and rear drive shafts. All I need are fronts, and I could put my lift on. I have everything else.

Take a look at the fenders in the picture. Those are the stock ones cut back.
