What size lift?

Hey, I was wondering what size lift I would need to get for a 2001 f-250 7.3 to be about to fit 40in tires on it.

Id say you should be all set with a 8'', my friend got 38's under is with a 4 inch lift and all he had to do was cut the plastic at the bottom of the bumper a little bit and beat the plastic inner fender inside a bit.
