With rough country 4" kit, does it sit level with just the lift?

Old thread, glad I found it! I have the 2wd and my current setup is screwed. Fox coilovers and upper control arms with FX4 blocks out back. Problem is the front coilovers are for a 4wd and my geometry is screwed.

I want a similar height, just love it! Plan is to go with the Rough Country 4" lift, OP tipped me off on the 4 & 6" kit being the same aside from the coil spacers and I just called RC to confirm. That being said I talked to King (I live 10 minutes from them) about building me some front coilovers and I can go anywhere from 4-6" lift with this! I am thing of staying right in the middle at 5" with Camburg uppers and matching rear shocks of course. Gonna cost a pretty penny! Thoughts...

How does it ride compared to a stock truck. I have a 2014 and am torn between just a level or lift. I love how smooth my truck is and don't really want to loose that but that depends on tire a lot too. Just curious as I've never rode in a lifted truck.

It really comes down to tires! I had 6" lifted trucks for years and got a bit tired of the ride and having to re gear. With my 4" lift I am running 33's, don't have to re gear and the ride is as smooth as stock. Now that I have installed King shocks its even better!

Awesome looking truck!! Looking to do something similar to my truck with the 4in lift instead of 6in lift. What size wheels are those? Backspacing? Any rubbing with the 4in lift? Was thinking of rough country 4in lift, nitto tires and the helo 878.
