double lift questions

Ok, I have a body lift already on my truck, and 33 inch tires. Basically I want to put 35s on it. So I figured id do shackles and torsion bar key to clear the tires. But if I put 35s on, is that bad with stock gearing and what not? Any issues I may be running into? Any reccomendations would be awesome! Thanks!

Look on your axle tag or the door tag.
