I can't speak of the bodylift but I can tell you that with a fabtech 6" lift, 40's will not work.

My 38's fit perfectly, no trimming, no rubbing (would make the frame shiny but not bear into it so that you could feel it)

The problem with 38's and especially 40's even if you could fit them is the truck would run like crap. When I installed 38's, I was so dissapointed with the performance, I installed 4.56 gears.... that didn't work so I installed a supercharger.

That's why I did the torsion bar bit with 35's. Looks decent and not so power robbing, it makes the truck nasty to drive.
