Yes but you may have some rubbing on the upper a arms. Some do and some don't. Seems to be no ryme or reason to it if you will or not.

Nice choice on the Donahoes. I had a set on my Taco and went cheap on the RUnner with Sway-a-ways and have been kicking myself since. Absolutely the best coil overs sold!

this seems to be the tire to run with that size lift unless you have a body lift.

I have that exact same setup you have. They fit but there is only like a 1/4" between the balljoint and arm and the tire. Also, if you come up over a hill fast when the truck comes back down you will have contact on the tire and arm. I had to buy new rims, In my mind for safety sake.

I ended up getting new rims and Chaos upper arms.....Bryan
