Clearing 40s ? ? ?

[ltr45063]

im running a rough country 6" spring in the front and a 4" block in the back (weird i know but thats what the kit came with) with 37/13.50/18 i want to run 40/15.50/22 ... can i just get 3" hangers for the front and 6" leafs in the back to make its 9" in the front and 10" in the back and clear 40s? or will i need more than 9" of lift to clear 40s???...needing help im new at this and im trying to take the less $$$ route thanks..
here is a pic of the truck now

It should in theory fit. I dont know about rubbing though. Good looking truck.

I thought that when you exceed 6" lifts you have to worry about brake lines, drive shafts, etc... I could be wrong though

[Ryan Rønning]

Well you do but I was thinking he was just asking about the actual lift!

Oh i see. clearing 40's would be so awesome. welcome to the org by the way man

thanks guys...and yea i knew about the drive shafts/ brake lines just curious about the lift .....and also about the leveling of the truck do most lifts come like 6-4 or 10-8 how should i go about that if i can clear 40s with only 9 inches up front?? thanks for all the help

Depends on the look your goin for. My last truck had 11"s total. 6" springs and 5" hangers in the front with 10" spring and factory F250 block in the rear. It sat a lil over the 39.5 TSL's. 8" and 38's is a common set up so with 9" you should be good but will prob be a lil tighter than I like.

what is the ideal lift size 2 be alright with 40s?

[Ryan Rønning]

Well I run 8 in the front and 4 in the back and 37 but I have had 38's on here with no rubbing. I dont see why 10 in the front and leveled off in the rear wouldn't be enough!

in order to clear 40's WITHOUT rubbing you'll need 10" of lift...you won't need new brake lines, just get extension brackets( IVE RUN 11 WITHOUT LINES ) and you'll need your front driveshaft extended.
