Want to buy a new jeep and I want to buy it stock and do everything myself. Can I just lift 6"(4 suspension 2 body), put 37s, put some C gussets and regear? This one will be a mall crawler so I'm not worried about axles.

Two door or four door? It'll make a difference, but you won't need a body lift if you do a four inch suspension.

I don't need to do anything with the steering stuff or get longer trac bars, tie rods ect?

If I were you, I would do a ton of research regarding 37inch tires and a 6inch lift. To make a tj with 37's safe, there is alot of mods you will want to do. Im no expert but ill try to help. 
Just some things off the top of my head:
•Upgrade steering components ( tie rod, drag link, adjustable track bars, etc).
•brakes
•regear (if you want any power at all)
•sye/cv drive shaft
•if you end up with a rear dana 35 and run 37's on it, it will break. Just a matter of time.
• adjustable control arms
.............
The list goes on and on man. Definitely do some research before jumping into upgrades this big.
You can have a mean ass tj with 33's-35's.
Goodluck:thumbup:

My friend has a tj with a 6" lift with only 35s. Cruising behind him on trails, watching him hit steep side angled sections is pretty daunting. Having a high center of gravity coupled with a narrow stance (at least more narrow than a jk) is not something I would suggest. Most of the built up JKs here are 4" of lift and less. Something to consider...

Why would you want a total of a 6" lift, also why a body lift?
You can run 37"s with a 3" kit and flat fenders.

Not with a TJ you can't.
