New Truck Help

Hi all I'm new to the site and I just got a new truck. I was wondering about your suggestions for a 86 F-150 4x4. It has a 300ci I6 and 31's with no lift. I wanna put some 33 12.50 15 thornbirds with a 3 inch body lift on it. So if I could have your suggestions they would be appreciated. And some info about the engine and the thornbirds plz.

I would get a set of 4.10-4.50s gears to go with them tires, the extra grunt will be well appraciated.
