Lift?

I have a 93 GMC 2500 4×4 and would like to fit 44’s under. Am getting Bushwacker cutout fender flares. Not sure yet how much fender is required to trim for the fender flares. How much lift not including the cutouts will I need to fit the tires? Also will I need spacers for the front axle? Am getting a straight axle conversion plus a ford front axle for it.  Also does anyone know if it is possible to put rubbers spacers between leaf springs to make the ride better? Thank you for the help

Why not 35″s?

Hi all.
I have a 1981 F-150 with a 2 1/2 suspension lift. I currently have 33/12.50/15s on it and I seem to have A LOT of clearance in the wheel wells. They occasionally rub on the radius arms when parking in tight spots, but I don’t see any reason not to put 35s of the same width on– wouldn’t it be about the same other than the tires would just rub on a different part of the radius arm? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
