Lift?

I'm wanting to lift my truck to fit a set of 36" ground hawgs, my 35's have been rubbing and drivin me nuts, so I want clearance, what do I need to get??? I think a 5 inch lift should work, but I'm open to suggestions, I've been looking into piecing together a kit with the best components, so far I've decided on
DT Profab: HD Track Bar, dual shock mounts, 5" front springs, unsure on control arms of what length I'll need, I already have a set of 1/2 inch forward arms on my truck for the 35's i'm running and hoping they will work, but if someone can get me a measurement off their truck I'd appreciate it.
Tuff Country: Add a leafs for the rear springs to make 5.5 inches total lift
