- 38 inch interco TSL Swampers
- chevy 63 inch springs with marlin crawler 4 inch front springs

You didn't say if it will be a Daily Driver or not.
(1) 30-Spline Longfields

(2) 5.29 Yukon Gears

(3) Aussie Locker front

& Welded rear

I would spend the coin and get a pair of Aussie's.
(4) 38 inch tires

I wouldn't go larger than 36 or 37, with your short wheelbase you should be fine.
(5) Marlin/Chevy springs

I have very little experience with either...
(6) 1" Body lift

You can hide 1", but 2" starts looking ghetto in my opinion

Don't forget transfer case gears, they are Lucky #1
