You want at least 6" clearance between bed rail and 5vr overhang....more is better BUT you also want to tow level.
Flipping axles is usually 1st modification before doing any subframe mods
Moving leaf springs to top of axles will gain you 4"-6" depending on axle tube diameter and number of leaf springs
I could cut the pinbox but that would not level my 5th. I made arrangement for a shop to make adjustment. They have done many due to new high trucks! They will check suspension as some have room for adjustments, failing that they will flip the leaf springs, failing that they will raise suspension. I'll let you know which route they took..
IF they end up doing a subframe lift.......make sure that includes cross-member supports and bracing
This one is a 6" lift with 2" cross-member
And IF all that is needed is 2" lift......
Check out LCI Correct Track Kit
Aligns your axles AND adds 2" lift
