Big Big Big Lift question

I have a 97 f150 4x4. It already has a superlift and a body lift with add a leafs and the torsion bars cranked all the way. I am running 38's. This is as big as I can go right now. I want to go much bigger, maybe run 44's or 46's. Now I know everyone is going to say it can't be done but it can. I am a recent college grad and will be buying a smaller vehicle to commute back and forth with and want to make this truck my toy (very large toy) I am wondering if anyone knows what kind of front end to put in. I will be putting in a solid front axle with leafs on the front. I have seen this done but don't know what axle was used. If anyone could give some advice that would be great.

Of course it can be done, but I would think that to go that big, you are now in the area of a custom built lift. I can't recall ever seeing a lift kit that big that wasn't custom. Best to talk to companies like Fabtech or Skyjacker, and see what they can do for you.

I believe someone makes a solid axle conversion for our trucks, but I can't remember who. Of course, you can always go with a custom conversion. The highest tech approach would be a solid axle with coilovers shocks instead of leaf springs.
