Question 3inch body lift on a 99 f350 automatic

I haven't been able to find any body lifts that'll work for my 99 f350 automatic. I was wondering if there are body lifts for this model?

lifting the body will make no difference in the tires rubbing the leaf springs since they (the springs) are going to stay in the same place in relation to the tread of the tire w/ or w/o a body lift.....

you either need a tire that isn't so wide or a wheel with the proper backspacing and offset to eliminate tire rub on the leafs @ full lock.

Even a suspension lift wouldn't help that, try different wheels or smaller tires.
