On mine, the body lift turned out to be very beneficial. I had installed it before the suspension lift because I expected it would be useful.
I am currently using the RS5000X shocks for a 3.5” lift. I am left with about 5” of shaft exposed on my shocks. When the pairs of shocks are 100% compressed, I have no rubbing. However, when cycling the axles I found out that the tires will just barely rub when one shock is at full compression and the other at full extension. On the front, at full flex, the tire will only rub when the wheel is at full lock left or right.
Without the body lift I would have definitely lost an inch of uptravel to prevent the tires from rubbing at full flex.

4" on 35s
4" and 1.25" BL on 35s
Dont opt for an RC lift. Get something with quality joints (duroflex or Johnny Joint). Also remember that it takes quite a bit to run 35s. Dont skimp

About 7" or so. It's enough that it gets into the fenders with the Hutchinsons. The steel wheels had more backspacing and they just barely cleared the fenders when crossed up. If it's straight compression, both tires will rub the fender lip. I've smashed two of the fender flares up against trees, so I'll likely get the wider stock-ish looking flares to replace them.
