Only if they have stock tires, which is pretty uncommon on a lifted truck in my experience.

 But even then ground clearance is still partially a function of tire size because with IFS as the suspension compresses the diff goes down.



Not entirely unfamiliar with concept but even going from a 38 to a 44 only gives you max of 3" extra height, usually less when pressures are dropped for 'muddin'

An update it has been driven a bit but there have been some electronic glitches.mthosecare getting ironed out.
 Because some sensors had been left out, or for some other reason,  the front steering had kicked out.
 It uses the stock actuator.
 Pretty amazing though what rear steer can do for moving bit around.. which gets real handy when you are offroad.

I've only used 'rear steer' on earthmoving type equipment (was 'site service engineer' for a few years, great title, #$%* job)
Takes a little getting used to but can get you out of some 'sticky' situations (literally when your in yellow clay  ;D)
