Default 4 vs 6

Hi there, new to the forum but have been lurking for a while.
Recently purchased a 2008 FX4 crew cab shortbox and replaced the timing chain, tensioner, cam phasers, and exhaust manifolds.

Anyways, my question is this, the truck has a 2 inch level on it and id like to go bigger. the difference in price for a 4 or 6 inch suspension lift is $100, so for those of you that have the 4, do you find its enough? and vice versa for the 6, is it too much, just right? i do a lot of camping and crawling in the summer and winter so if i go with the 4 i dont want to be kicking myself over not spending the extra 100 for the 6

Thanks for any opinions
Josh

I like the 4'' lift with 35's. It looks proportioned right. I think 8'' lift looks good with 37's. Not to many 6'' lifts in my area
