well i only had a 2'' body lift, and a 1'' gaurd cut and mine cleared 35's offroad. So i reckon a 2'' body lift with 2'' sus lift would clear 35's. But if its just for looks and you wont be doin massive flexin offroad, then you got nothin to worry about.

mine has no lift and sits on 33s, and i know a 3 inch body lift will clear 35s, so you should be fine

I`ve just put 35/12.5/15 trepadors on 15x8 gq rims on my mq shorty last week. Mines got 2inch springs and 2inch shackles and no body lift. Cut 1 inch out of rear guards and trim the lip out of the lower section of the front guards. Yours looks like it has a lot of guard clearence than mine, so bolt em on ,flex it up and check it . They might fit easier than you think. Boost and fuel up the sd33t and it should be ok. Mines got an L28 big block and it suffers a bit up hills but an engine conversion will fix that.

here is mine when on std springs and shackles, no sway bar, powerdown shocks and 2" body sitting on 35's
There was no way the tyres would foul the guards, maybe full lock on the front a little bit. Wasnt until i got longer shackles and a custom 3" spring lift that the fronts started hitting the front edge of the guard.
As for the power output.. Nice price too, how many K's on it? It should have 4.3 diffs. Will be shit house for towing anything bigger than a box tralier in 5th on 35's. MIne has 4.6 diffs and I tow car tralier in 4th most of the time, or put the 7.50r16 split rims back on.
Alot can be gained from upping the boost but this is up to you. If its only a toy block off wastegate, remove over-boost valve from intake manifold and adjust fuel accordingly. I did this for a while but moved away from it due to towing car tralier all the time and having the wrong radiator.
Hope this helps

by Wish I had coils
she's a clean looking bus,
And as for fitting 35 there all different i've got two inch body lift, front was reset back sit real good and i get scrubing on the front at full lock just going up a gutter with 33's (no sway bar )
Mate has 36's and his does not scrub with a 2 and 2.
So there all different.
Just buy the tyres and put them on if the foul just moddify till they fit.
