2 spacer or 2 strut
What kinda different will i feel in ride quality between these 2 options. Ruff country 2 strut spacer 50$ And factory struts . Or ruff country 2 strut kit for 329$. Dont really want to spend any more then that on a level
my truck is a 19 with only 4K miles
is it worth the 280$ difference

Only thing you'll gain with the spacer is a level.
With the struts, you'll gain the level, plus better shocks, handling.
Either way, you'll be doing pretty much the same amount of work. I'd say the struts/coilovers.

Thats what i was wandering. If i would notice a better ride the the RC strut. I think it drive pretty dang good now.
You aren't done if you do the front strut lift. You should also do a matching rear shock to complement the better front struts. Cheapest way out is the spacers since you like the factory ride. I did a 1" spacer almost 3 years ago on my FX4 and haven't regretted it.

That Rough Country set up, I have zero experience with, but judging from what I've seen, they should be a better option, I feel safe in saying the OEM shocks aren't that great.
Now, my truck is a '17, and with 500 +/- miles on a new truck, it had newer shocks all the way around, huge difference. No reason for me to believe that even just front ones shouldn't help with brake dive, and body roll.
