Default 4in Lift VS Stock

I had searched on here for a very long time wanting to see a 4in Lift vs a stock height truck. I never found what I was looking for. Well I finally took the plunge and went with the 4in Rancho and 35x12.50R20 Nitto Trail Grap MTs. I hope this helps someone with their decision as I was on the 6in vs 4in fence for a very long time and nobody in my area had a 4in. I wanted to Thank Desert Dawg for his help too. He has had and does have some amazing trucks. When it all is said and done, the 4in was way more than I thought it was gonna be (with all the "6in or you wont be happy" hype had me doubting) and the 4in is perfect in my eyes.

Mine

2013 FX4 Sterling Grey. 5.0l, 4in Rancho, RS9000XLs, Fuel Hostage 20X9 (4.5 backspace) 35x12.50 Nitto Trail Grappler MT

The other is a stock

2013 FX4 Sterling Grey EcoBoost. Only other notable difference is his Mirrors. The rest is identical.

I hope this Helps somone else. Aso my cell is the only camera I had so if someone wants better pics, he parks in my Parking Lot Everyday so that can be accomplished.

Thanks for the comparison pics. Your truck turned out really nice.

After the lift, is your truck level? Or is there still a little bit of rake front to back?

I agree, I drive past a chevy dealership on my way to and from work everyday and they have a 6in lifted silverado on 35s and the wheel gap is too big in my opinion. But then again, ALLOT of the trucks on here do look really good with 6in and 35s. But I am happy with the end results. Thanks for all the compliments.
