Cheapest way to go is just replace the stock muffler with a straight through muffler. Like a Magnaflow.
4.56 is the proper gear for your 35s and you could go 4.88 but I wouldn't unless you plan on going with a bigger tire in the future.

It's a pretty technical job and you need all the special tools to do it.

You'll probably be happiest with 4.56 gears. You need at the minimum 4.10. Do you know what gears are in it now.
I would recommend Magnaflow for exhaust, but any straight through muffler similar to a glasspack would be best. If your truck has all the stock cats I would probably put a glasspack on it and Y it out to 2 tail pipes. I would just go to a muffler shop that way you can get the tips where you want them and the tail pipes will clear everything like the spare tire and reciever hitch etc.
I do not like prefab exhaust kits. They never seem to fit all that great.

I agree. Get the flowmaster out of your head. They do NOTHING for performance. They are not very well flowing, they just make a certain sound that some people like (which I do not like). Look inside one. The first thing you see is a wall that your exhaust gases runs right into, then it gets pushed around a series of walls and deflectors.... Not good for exhaust velocity and scavenging (which is what you want). I had a set, they lasted 1 year before they completely rusted out and get very loud. Never again. Straight through for me!
Don't be afraid to rev that 4.6, go with some 4.56's at least, that is a big tire for a small motor and small gear to turn, you are going to need every bit of grunt to move that thing. Unless you go back to a smaller tire.
