Here you go, I did a little searching and found a sticky in the lifting sections. Fitting 31s is supposed to be easy. Many options, price ranges. Research is the best way to find what you like.

i have 31's with just a 2 inch body lift but I did have to trim my front fenders. Still rub a hair when I'm full lock only when making a tight you turn going left. from all the searching I did before I did the lift and tires it looks like it really varies for everyone. But if your not afraid of doing some cutting the body lift should be enough. The body lift cost me $190 for 4wheelparts.com

Nah man, it fits with just a 2" body lift.

My '96 has a 2 inch body and just had to do some fender trimming.
