with a body lift, you will need to lengthen all linkages from the cab to the frame. That does include the steering shaft (borgeson makes one that is adjustable and better than stock). The 4wd linkage being to low? it wont sit any lower in the frame than it already is for ground clearance, but the shifter rod will need to be lengthened. 40" ground hawgs? probably not without some major fender trimming, especially in the front.
