that should work..
imo i wouldn`t use a body lift,id just install an 8in suspention.i think the 38` would clear fine. the body lift will make it ride worse,besides all the trouble to install,and i also dislike the body gap.. just my .o2 not trying to step on any toes... any way you bulid it good luck,and post pics!!!!

38's are close with 9 inches, I rub over just medium bumps. I hope you don't intend to off road with that combo.

Don't flame me, but I don't intend to take it offroad, unless you
count winter time snow as a offroad experience.
