is anyone pulling with a 6" lift and what kind of lift do you have on the truck?
 
I had a 6" Superlift on my old Superduty back in the day. Only pulled it once and did ok but its not a great idea.

Pulled a couple of times with a lift trouble free.
 
they have some smooth operators in NH look at the amount of bark missing on that tree.
 
starts pulling around 1:20. I'm not a puller like you guys and have only done it a few times. You can see the axle wrap as the truck goes by.... almost hitting the fender well. Didn't have any ladder bars at the time but, I wouldn't do it frequently even if I had them with the lift. Pulls fine but.....

what kind of truck is it? i pulled with a 4" lift on my 04 chevy and it did pretty good. but i have a built front end and im not pushin alot of power. the lift on my truck just made everything up front dead level so that might help.
 
I pull with 10" and 37's for the last 7 years and no problems.
 
If your allowed traction bars then thats a different story, but here in ISP there are no bars allowed.
 
I've got a custom 13" lift on my 6.0 powerstroke, 37" mud grapplers, with ladder bars and it does really well.
 
I have 8" lift and 37" tires and pull mine in 2.6, only problem I have is trying to boost up too much off the line with the bigger tires and breaking the front driveshaft, I am on my third one and can only boost up to 6-8 psi.
Here is a vid of the last drive line breaking
