BIGGEST tire size ????
ok i have a 2002 Ford F250 extended cab, short box, 4 wheel drive, V-10 automatic.
I DONT want to lift it, since i dont way to have to re-align it and blah blah blah. $$$
it sits pretty level, not as high as the F350's though.
ok, questions.... on a stock lift, with stock wheels i SHOULD be able to fit ------> 33" tall, by 10.50" wide BFG mud terrains right??
any advice is appreciated. when it warms up outside i plan to go measure the wheel well space with the stock tires on it

No alingment needed, the caster / camber and toe are unaffected.

thanks WAXY and YETI
yeti- do you mean theres no need to re-align it if i lift it, or if i just pinch the tires on? my buddy had to have his super duty aligned when he put a 4 inch lift in it.... which the truck is sold and the lift is for sale..... so id be putting that lift in if any.

The only thing I had to do after sticking in my lift was re- center my steering wheel. Your just lifting the frame higher of the axle, that's what makes lifting theses trucks so easy, with the straight axle up front you don't have to worry about any caster / camber changes or tow problems.

I have almost 20,000 miles on mine after I installed my lift and have never had it re-alinged.(the tires are wearing nice and even) Like Yeti said all I did was re-center the stearing wheel.

well, another reason i dont want to lift it is that its my work truck as well as my daily driver. i do tree removal, so the taller the truck is, the higher i gotta lift the wood.
