Lift Kit/Upper Control Arm Question

[jakebyrd]

I currently have 3" keys on my Z71 04. I want to gain enough height to run 35s. If I buy 2" to 4" extended upper control arms will that increase the height? If it does what other effects will it have? Also I'm interested in a lift but trying not to spend too much money. Only really want the lift to justify getting 35s. Are there 3" or 4" lift kits out there? If so what brand? If there aren't is there anything else I can do to increase my height?

I think a "leveling" kit with keys on the torsion bars and spacers on the rear axle will handle 33" tires. For 35's I think you need 4"-6"; which can be found in suspension lifts. I am not familiar with the UCA approach to gaining lift, which I'm assuming is the inverse of drop spindles.
