I did two quick searches on recreation.gov for campgrounds near Yosemite with a 40ft vehicle length and a 45ft vehicle length.
40ft - 162 results
42ft - 116 results
I opened up a couple campgrounds and there might only be 1-3 campsites that will fit those size rigs.
I did not look at rates or type of campground (group, etc). I also did not limit search to within a set distance, so many of those campgrounds will be 80+ miles away.
So, with either rig, you're going to be limited. You're going to need to book well in advance because you won't be able to just "fit anywhere". You'll have a few more campground options at 40ft than at 45ft, but that likely won't result in a huge difference in actual campsites.
If you are OK staying at RV Parks, further out from the NP, etc, you'll have more options.
