Default 6" lift on 2011 with RSC...

Hope I'm not asking questions already posted...
If yes, please give me the link.

I just sold my XLT supercrew 4WD 2007 with 2.5" leveling kit in the front and 1.5" rear, with 33's tires. I liked the ride. It was basically the same as stock ride.

Next month, I'm about to get my new truck: 2011 supercrew 4WD 5.0L (I'm stocked). I'd like to lift it, maybe a little bit higher, in order to set 35" tires.
Even if I go offraod some times, the main purpose is to get an aggressive look but still have a safe ride.

So here are my questions:
- What lift should I go with, 3", 4" or 6"?
- With a 6" lift on that model, is the ride going to be very different from stock? I don't want to get a too smooth ride or unsafe.
- What brand would you recommend Fabtech or Pro comp stage 2?
- Would it interfere with the Advance Trac system with Roll Stability Control (RSC) and the trailer Sway Control?

Hope you guys will help me with all this bunch of questions.

Thanks!

Well 3,4,6 inch lifts can all fit 35 pretty much. But by going with a 6 inch u will have more clearance for tire travel. Fab tech and pro comp are pretty much the same lift. U should look at bds too but pro comp stage 2 u get a lot better shocks then all the lifts

All the lift u will Maintain the factory ride there no need to worry about that one. U will be surprise how well it will ride once u lift it

Thanks HK for your answer.

Never get 6 inches high, is the ride very different from stock?

You have an impressive set up on your truck! I love it!
Did you get some check engine codes or something due to your tires size and lift interfering with the RSC?
