Building a 97 tahoe need lift advice

I tried searching but all I found was lift threads for looks. Picked up a one owner 97 tahoe last year. Jiffy lube special, they sold the old man on a synthetic oil upgrade. Knock knock bang bang and I got a tahoe that’s never been cut on for $500. Fresh engine is in it and will be done soon, now it’s on to the next step.

This is just going to be a camping/light offroad rig. I’ve owned and broken a lot of IFS trucks. I know what it is and what it ain’t, just wondering what suspension lifts people are running that have held up. The IFS lifts I’ve had before were the bracket drop style, hopefully there is something better out there.. Someone is bound to say it, so, no an axle swap isn’t on the menu right now.

I’m not trying to run huge tires. Not even sure if I’d go to 33s maybe 31s or something. All I’m looking for is a little more ground clearance and I don’t want anything to rub.
