36" tires should just about fit with no lift, unless your springs are sagging. 38's should fit with a 3" body lift or a 4" suspension lift. There's only one way to lift the front - "New Springs"

is it an early 77 (highboy) or a 77.5? if its a later one you will not fit 36's stock. a highboy you probably could. and you really wouldnt have to lift it to clear 38's. Bushwacker cutout flares. 400 bucks. done.
