I have a 1991 f-150 with a 3" body lift under it right now and i have plans on later on lifting it again... I want to put 44's under it does anyone know how much I would have to lift it and where i would go about finding that big of a lift.

 

The biggist lift I know of is 8" for the ford ifs. It is a skyjacker. With you 3 inch body lift you will have to do some major fender trimming but I think you could get them under there. Give a little more time, somebody will come out with a 10 or 12 inch

 

Seen a Chevy with 13 inches of lift and 44s on it so he either fabed it himself or somebody makes lifts so it will work

 

Yeah whiplash makes those. But for some reason they do not do late models just new vehicles

 

this was an older model Chevy i seen on Ebay later than 90 model can't remember for sure

 

Late model ford suspention lifts are hard to find above 6" as I said before skyjacker is the only 8". Trust me I have looked. Ifyou do run across one bigger that does not cost my first born and life savings let me know

 

Check out www.broncograveyard.com , they have up to 10" lifts available, but are solid axle conversions. Any more than 8" with TTB just isn't safe and will crack the frame/crossmember.

 

I have seen in a magazine that i could fit 44s under my truck with an 8" suspension 3" body and minor fendor tremming is this B.S. or are they right

 

Yeah, according to FourWheeler magazine, you can fit 44x18's with a 8 inch lift/3 inch body with minor fender trimming. I'd just go with a 10" solid axle conversion if I were you.

 

The 8" lift is not going to take a beating off road, that suspension just wasn't designed for high lifts. I'd say no more than 6", thats why no one else but skyjacker makes an 8". Also, the TTB will never handle 44's, way too big. According to Four WheelertThe biggest recommended on a d44 is a 35" tire. Get a Dana 60 solid axle if you want that big.

 

Yes i have plans on changing axles i'm also thinking about going to a straight axle... what are your thoughts on this?

 

I think it's preatty much your only choice, I'd say d60 or higher

 

It is your only choice, forget a d44, you need atleast a d60 and atleast a sterling 10.25 full floater in the rear. You should go buy an F-350, you wouldn't have to change a thing.
