Have a bit of a search through here there are many threads about this. Also there have been some pretty well documented threads about buildups etc.

well mate im 17 just put 31" on and i am only running a 2" body lift. i would serioulsy reconsider being a new driver having 31" which is 2" of lift, a 3" body lift and a 2" sus lift. jsut way too high for the C.O.G. of a stock sierra. i would say go 2" sus lift and lock up your diffs before you go body lift and only once you've become a good driver would i put that much body lift on. its asking for trouble.

ok you really need to do a bit of reading of other threads on this forum. take the time and search on here. As I'd imagine you are on a pretty tight budget you don't want to be wasting money. So really research what you want to do and do it right first time.
And you really shouldn't be bribing people with beer when you are 16
