So the plan after the trans is a sas swap on leaf springs im going to try and use 46" used army tires and i think i can get away with 10-11" of lift.. what do you guys think, do i need more lift than that? i plan on regearing the axles when i buy them and adding lockers too. i think these are the wheels im going with as i need a 20" rim and im gonna get some offset too... thanks guys

I would do a simple mock up using a 46" round piece of plywood and see where the axle would have to be to clear everything.

I've got 11" and its a tight fit for the 38's are you trimming the fender? I think you'll need more or trimming to fit a 46" I'd ask the guy that's already done it, although I haven't seen him on here for a while
