44's 0n 79?

I have a 1979 F250 4wd with a 6in susp lift and 3in body lift running on 38.5in Swampers with the possibilty of 40s. I wanna run 44's but can't find a susp lift bigger than 6in. Does anybody make one?

noone makes a lift higher than 6inches for our truck, but there are alot of things to do do get more lift, you should be able to run a 42 with what we have now, if you look at my pictures, thats my truck with 40 inch boggers and a 4inch susp and 3 inch body, now with the 6 inch i have too much space

Since you have leaf springs you could take it to a spring shop there they can make anything you want.
