Damo,
You have been told correctly. A body lift is a necessity for a TF to put bigger rubber under. The angle grinder is the second step to put 33's under without rubbing.
I have posted previous info on this some time ago as this is exactly what I had to do to place 285/75 16's (33 equivalents) under my TF. Well worth it though. You need the larger rubber to takle the tougher sites.
Re a 3" lift.. if you want to keep your truck legal, check with an engineer first. My local engineer had no trouble with 2" body lift but would not touch a 3" lift without major checking. Comes down to dollars and cents that you want to spend.
A 2" lift, a few centimeters of guard cut away and re welded is all you need.
Cheers
