To be honest I have no fricken clue. I would try it out. Take it for a ride. If you are pushing hard just to make them go try to trade them to a shop that specializes in off road and get 38s. I just think it would look really bad ***

Ya i was going to go with 4 inch with 33s, or 6 inch with 35's. So I am don't look stupid with a huge lift and small tires. Would it fit right if I just went 4 inch lift and 35's, or will it rub going in driveways or up a quick hill.

It would probably fit but the same problem with looking goofy and a little rubbing. It is still better to go bigger with smaller lift at least as far as looks go

Looks good. I think it will make a damn good truck lifted. It's pretty much just personal preference from here. You gotta do what you like

Go 6inch lift with 35's you will be much happier and the truck will look a little more proportionate in my opinion.

Here's my truck. I have a 6" suspension lift with 35" tires. I really like the combination. The stance is nice, it still handles well, it looks good, it's not too big, it's not too small, etc. (all my personal opinion, of course)

At least you can get an idea of the look you'll get with a 6' lift with 35" tires.

It looks really straight! It will look sick lifted with nice wheels and tires and it will definitely turn heads. It's getting harder and harder to find twenty year old trucks in good shape. Good purchase!

Thanks you, I spent a lot of time looking for the right one, with the right price. I really want a f150 regular cab short bed like yours, wanting to make an identical truck as in the movie "Walking Tall". Your truck was like my dream truck.
