Due to dimensional variances among manufacturers, 35s or 36s is about it..... maybe 37s but ya gotta watch the backspacing.

.. mo better if the rig has 4.10 gears.

I work at a Americas Tire shop so my best guess would be maybe some 35x12.5x whatever rim size you have. Mickey Thompson makes some 37x13.50 if your looking to get a wider tire but i don' think a 69 will fit for that. I also have a 69 F100, If you stop by an Americas Tire, we can do test fitting to see what the truck will max out with as far as clearance. What type of mud tire are you going with? PSI? Vehicle weight? strictly mud or mix? You may not need a big 'ol 35+ tire depending on these factors.
