My old van, an 84 e150 had the body lifted 4 inches. This was done by using a pickup body lift kit.

for a 4 inch lift the steering mass jacket had to be dropped 2 inches using spacers, and triming the hole in the firewall. Also the radiator holes will have to be moved down. The shifter linkage may have to be adjusted and/or lengthened.

It can be done.
