To fit 31s and use them properly, you're gonna a need 3" lift. If it's gonna be a Chelsea tractor, then you might get away with a budget boost - if you can get one that big.
A budget boost is installing spacers or 'pucks' on top of the front coil springs. At the rear you installs blocks and longer u-bolts between the leaf spring and the axle OR replace the shackles at the rear of the leaf springs with longer ones.
Don't expect great things of it offroad, but it will make the car higher. It's ok for greenlaning where you won't get that much articulation due to having the front sway bar connected.

I really hope that comment was meant as a joke and not as a personal jibe...
Having had a quick read of this thread I don't see any need for anyone to start casting aspersions on anothers abilities or expertise, indeed I would suggest that the wording "don't expect great things of it ... <etc>" imply that there is some level of experience beyond green laning, which, as has been rightly pointed out should require practically no modifications other than carrying a first aid kit..
