I set mine (4x4) at 2nd setting from bottom. It gave me a 1" front lift. Looks/rides much better than stock and still provides a 1" rake difference from rear to allow for some weight in the bed.
IMO this is the way to go if you're running 33's, for 34's+ you'll probably want to go higher.

mine still isn't really completely level @ the top 2.25"

First time around I went 1 down from the top.




It still had rake, so had it switched to the very top setting.

I rode in a customer's truck, exactly like mine but with a 5.0 and a spacer kit.

I wish I had a 5.0 and a spacer kit. His truck rides better, and gets better mileage.
