Default Possible drop in lift

I have a 6 inch Pro comp lift would it be possible to drop down to a 4 inch lift?

A lot of 6 inch lifts are a 4" lift with a 2" strut spacer reusing the factory coilover.

you can likely remove the front spacer and likely would have to change the rear block too. An alignment would be required.

The only difference b/w Pro Comp 4" (K4194B) and 6" is the front strut spacer, rear block/ubolt and rear shocks. You can certainly drop down to a 4", you would just need to procure the smaller strut spacer and block.

Reason I want to drop is I have 3.31 gears and 35 inch tires. I figured if I drop down to a 4 I could put 34 inch tires on instead. Sux I have to go that route but I don’t want to spend 2400 to regear��

why not just run 34" tires with the 6" lift?
You can also just get rid of the lift spacer and replace it with a rough country 4" lift strut.

I have 33s and 3.31 gears. It's bearable but I wouldn't go any higher than that.I knew going into the truck that the gears would likely keep me to 33 and smaller so it wasn't really an issue but it did impact performance more than I thought it would.
