What size tyres does he plan to run?
And how much $$ is he looking to spend?
30" Can go stock, 44"s will require a bit more work  |

31's will be fine in regard to the ends of the sills as long as they are on stock wheels. You will need to extend the bumpstops a touch but that should be about it with a 2" lift. I didn't start trimming until I went to 32X11.5.
Cheers
