Well I’m that case need another chassis because of the rear coil spring setup. I’ve flipped the axle under the trailing arms but just that alone gives you about 6.5” of lift from 2wd height so for stock height 4wd that’s too much. What randy said is something to keep in mind about a truck chassis, I may be wrong but I think only 72 the rear bumper bolted directly to the frame and the older models used brackets
