I added the 1.25" body lift with a TF perf. Leveling kit and DT 33's to keep the tires from rubbing on the fenders when stuffed. It's much cheaper than flat fenders.

Search for any post by Planman. In his sig at the bottom will be a link to his thread on running 37's with a small lift and body lift.

Note that there is a ground strap that goes from the passenger side engine block up to the fire wall that when you jack up the body to install the body lift, you may rip the cable out of the loop terminal. Mine did get pulled out. It pulled out of the firewall side loop terminal, so I removed the entire thing, re-crimped it and soldered the braided wire into the loop terminals on both ends. The cable is long enough for a 1.25" body lift with slight slack, but no more than 1.25" would work. The loop terminal on the firewall is just to the passenger side of center, about 4 inches down. You can't miss it. After you install the body lift, go verify this is still intact, or remove that top bolt during the install and replace it after.

That may or may not be an issue depending on if you have the 07-11 w/3.8 or 12-16 w/3.6. I had with no issues w/12

I ran the same set up when I moved to 37s for over a year with no issues. Do you have an auto or manual. If manual you will need to make other modifications

Mine pulled apart on a 2014, supposedly identical to your 2012. I did say to check because it MAY pull, just trying to be helpful.
