3 inch lift using 2inch suspension lift and easy inches

[JFHblazer]

Purchased an 86 m1009 that has no mods and would like to start my resto on it by first lifting and extending a little.
Want to do the following: Lift 3 inches push axles back 1 to 1.5 inches and slap 35x 11.5 or 12.5' under it. I plan on cutting both front and rear to fit the tires. This is nit going to be an rock crawler so do need so crazy clearance.
Questions: Is 3 inches achievable using this method? Are there brackets I will need to move the sway bar forward?

Thanks

Caster has a lot to do with return to center. Before you go after caster, check that ball joints/king pins move freely. If that are binding this stop return to center.
You want positive caster +6°ish.

To much steering correction = bad .

Always make sure your drag link slopes down to the steering arm on the axle .

Check for sticking u-joints in your axle shafts.

Here’s how to check:
