Try turning up your tortion bars and see if they can get you to the edge of the safe zone at 24.25" from the center of the wheel to the bottom lip of the wheel well.

This should answer any other questions:https://www.f150forum.com/f6/35s-tbars-cranked-197341/

I assume your truck is a 4x4 by that link.

Beings that you are 4x4, they will give you after market torsion keys which will allow you to raise the front end too much which will destroy things like your CV axles. Stock keys will get you to the max recommended height of 24.25" measuring from the center of your hub to the top of the fender. The only thing usable on the kit would be the block for the rear they will give you which would probably have you on stacked blocks. You could just crank your current torsion keys, and buy a bigger block.
