Thanks!

If I wanted to throw some 1" spacers on there to give it just a touch more, would that cause any problems? Or should I throw a 1" body lift on there?

No, not at all. Put spacers in before a body lift

I have a 1" spacer in the front and a 1/2" spacer in the back. I have a winch and aftermarket bumper in front so it sits pretty level. I've been running the setup just over one year and it's worked out great. As for the height, my buddy has a 4" TF lift and although it sits a little higher than mine, the ride is nowhere as smooth.

Awesome guys, thanks for the great responses! I was thinking 1.5" front and 1" back...I think that's the way I'll go. I was comparing to TF because I've heard it gives you roughly 5.25"...but a smooth ride is what I'm after!
