It will fit without the BL.  It will get kinda tight between the axle and oil pan.  4" lift should be enough, but you will need to add bumpstop if your super flexy.  I run a BL and I cut some of the inside skin of the Hood to clear radiator.  I run hydro assist, and the ram sits on top of the axle.  BTW my Body lift is 1.5"..


  I could live with a 1" to 1.5" BL and a little trimming. I have marlin front springs and chevy rears. It flex's pretty good but still breaking in.  What lift do you have ?  No hydro assist yet. I see you are running the 700 trany how do you like it ? Im thinkin R150 but mostly because I already have it.
