My rig is black, all info on it is in the drop down window. I run 33x12.5 on 15 wheels with around 5" of lift but I also have a lot of fender trimmed out.

Is this lift good for the local trails we ride on? Besides tires and rims do I need to do anything else?

It's also gonna be a daily driver... So I want it to be stable at highway speeds... Does the type of lift make a difference?

Yes. I have 4.5. You need to address the steering. Mine wonders the road. It was worse. I fixed all my ends. I also think my steering box is bad. If you want somthing id go 3.5. And run 31s or 32s with trimming.
