If you just do a suspension lift as opposed to a body lift, then you won't have to worry about any exension of steering. Use the search bar is the handy corner up there, and there are NUMEROUS threads about it

I have a 2 inch suspension lift from BDS and a 2 inch body lift from Zone I put them both in myself in my driveway and have no reall experience working on vehicles. The body lift requires relocation of bumpers and comes with a 2 inch steering exteinsion but it's not a big deal. They only problem I had with the susppension lift was compressing my front springs to change the mount. That was only because the compressors I borrowed were old and rusted out. But all together I paid around 900 bucks for 4 inch of lift still savin for tires

You also need wheel spacers to fit that much tire.
