But to answer your question - yes you can! The is at least 1 on here that I know of. Can't remember who, but it's a blue pickup! And I'm sure there are more.
1 reason for doing this isn't for the extra height that the 2 lifts will give, but to be able to relax the TB's for more IFS flex... Just a thought!

While the extra lift is great and all, too much angle between the relay and tie rods will eat your idler & pitman arms very rapidly. Speaking from experience. I had about 7-8" of SUSPENSION lift on my IFS '90 and ended up lowering her back down due to the idler/pitman arms getting their asses handed to them every few months.
Depends on tire width and wheel backspacing, but yes you can definitely clear some 35s with just a bracket lift. I used to run 35x12.50 Dean SXTs with just a Rough Country bracket lift. I had already clearanced it for 32x11.50s with a 2" lift and it only rubbed a little on full compression when turned to the locks.
