once you start lifting that high remember that ttb front ends need to stay level so you don't wear out barring faster/ tire wear

Quite simply, don't do that. Your front end isn't going to like that at all. It's a general consensus here that 33" tires are about as big as you should go on those half ton TTB axles to avoid big problems and headaches.
