We need a little more info or do some reading and researching man!!!

How hard and how much do you go wheeling.
Is this a daily driver.
How much do you want to spend for improvements.
What motor "size".
What tools do you have, and access to parts and garage.
ect ect

Ok I didnt mean to jump down your throat or anything.

I would try someplace like Bronco graverard or skyjacker. You will want a full kit with front and rear springs, no blocks.

If im right you should be able to fit 33s almost stock with minimal rubbing. 35 should fit decent with a 4inch lift kit.

Your gears should be fine since they already are 4:10s.
