    Welcome to TW!
    3 or 4 inches on a 4x4 isn't really good for it. Stick to 2.5 or less. Lift alone isn't going to clear the tire tire you are probably thinking of.
    Drop bracket lifts are the only way to achieve such large lifts and don't give you more ground clearance, just keeps the cv angles straighter.

    @JaCado hit it on the head, what size tires are you planning, if your under 3 inches you can go 33s over that you need a drop bracket like a 4 inch or a 6 inch. Other than that it’s custom. I got 35s 2.75 up front with a lot of trimming and hammering and the rear I trimmed and have Chevy 63s
