body lift question
hey guys i know im gonna get flamed for asking, but i figured what the hell.
i have a 01 f 250 7.3 crew cab, short bed super duty. right now im running a 6" super lift setup with no blocks all springs, the truck rides great ! but im wanting to step up too a 39.5" tire as my max but i know i cant fit them the way it sits. i would consider body butchery (not) ! anyways im just trying to figure if this could work for me or not. i just dont want to get into re doing the whole suspension, the way i figure it is dialed in so well the way it sits, if i change it i need to change shocks, springs, brake lines, all kinds of crap. give me your opinions as well as pros and cons.
thanks in advance !!!

A body lift on a PSD will require modification of the intercooler tubes.
Suspension would be nice, just cost a bit since over 8" of suspension lift would require the use of crossover steering and trac bar relocation....along with shocks, brake lines, driveshaft modifications, etc...
