Just some thoughts based on my K5 build.
35" tire will hit the back of the front fender if going off-road. I'd go 6" lift or 33" tire.
4 or 6" Deaver Spring up front with 1" ORD spring block
2.5 or 4" Shackle flip w/ Deaver Spring in rear.
Sulastic shackles on rear greatly improves ride when unloaded. Not totally sure you can use with shackle flip.
Timbren SES in rear for towing. Can probably get by with a 1/2 ton spring for softer ride with SES or air bag. I don't like airbags personally.
