Speedo accuracy be damned ...

An inch or two can be gained with
- 205/70/15 tires.
- Overload wagon springs.
- Diesel or V6 front springs.

Beyond that, you're looking at much more serious work. Custom coil-over up front for more space, perhaps a custom lower A-arm for more drop, longer springs and shocks in the back, and wheel wells and arches cut out for larger tires (perhaps some 31's).

Or just plop the 240 on a rolled truck chassis.
