well ****......
According to an online tire calculator, 305/45/22 = 33"x12" 
so I guess I can't take my body lift off by those measurements; I was also looking at the front tires yesterday and it doesnt look like my front tires will clear the front bumper when I turn. Its not like I can "trim" the front bumper either since its one solid piece and not the seperate gray airdamn thingie on the other trucks. So ElkyRacer, if you're reading this I'll be sending you a money order back for the $185.00 for the body lift you sent me.
I guess I'll just buy some "gap guards" to hide the lift/frame seperation in front and back to make it look better.

hey ILL i was screwing around on tirerack.com and put your truck in with 22x10's. They told me that 305/40/22 would fit fine. now i don't see why a 45 series wouldn't. they told me that my 285/75's would not fit with out a lift and lo and behold mine fit just fine.
just some info for ya!

Im running 305/70/16 on my stock rims with the ford torsion bar cams in there. No rubbing what so ever. Every tire calculator I used alway tried to tell me that the 285/75 and the 305/70 tires were the same size.I guess they never sat the 2 tires side by side.
