I wouldn't do it. My boss at my old job bought a truck with this done to it and the camber on the tires was off. They looked like a "v" from the front, and it appeared that the last guy to own the truck was burning through tires really fast. The fronts were different from the rears, and they were newer looking from the outside yet more worn from the tread.

I would talk to a local lift shop, I used to do these lifts at a previous job, its something that an alignment professional should be doing.

You should be able to fit 285s stock, with no lift, and 305s just with a torsion bar raise...

I've got it on my truck. I'm clearing 35s with a little bit of fender cutting. I didn't want to go up 6" because I still need use of my bed. If your going to off road your truck its not the way to go. For just driving around town and dirt roads its great for the price. I've had it 10,000 miles with out any CV or ball joint problems.
