Default Rancho 4" install question

Im about to get the rancho 4" installed and I currently have Billistein leveling shocks on my truck. I am going back with all billistein. My question is on my front leveling shocks; after my lift is installed will the truck be level, or should I keep the leveling shocks to notch up and level it out? Thanks.

it should be level, its common for most lift to not only raise the truck but also to keep it level.

I have been considering a Rancho 4" myself, I like that I could use the 18" wheels I have now, unlike some lifts that require 20" wheels.

To answer your question, I don't think you will need to keep the level kit with the new lift, you should end up level with what is supplied in the kit, just remember to get longer shocks if you don't use the Rancho shocks. The front will come up 4" but the rear will come up 2" with that kit.

I just got the 4" rancho as well. It should be level. I have 20 X 9 wheels with 305-55's and the truck sits just high enough for an old man like me. You'll love it.
