Default Leveling kit with lift?

Hey guys im new to the forum, so i figured you could give me some good advice.

I got an 04 150Fx4 and currently have a leveling kit on it. I'm planning on stickin a 4'' lift under it. Will it drag *** (front higher than the rear) if i leave the leveling kit on with the lift? Is there any lift kits you guys would recommend?

If I had to buy a 4" kit today it would be a Superlift because of the price and how often do you actually see people having problems with lifts? If you were to have the spacer in there also your *** would drag. You could get a AAL to fix it, but why not just go with a 6" kit in the first place. Although you will still need a AAL more than likely.

So your thinkin' a 6'' lift eh? Do you think i can go that high without going overboard? Can i get away from draging *** by just taking the leveling kit off and then putting a lift kit on? Currently i have 33x12.5R20s' on it, if i put either a 4'' or 6'' lift on it will it be a good idea to but biger tires on it or can i get away with leaving them on?

Do you want the truck to sit high or just to be able to fit larger tires? If you just want larger tires I would go with the 4.5" kit because you can fit 35s on it and with the 6" you can only fit 35s. I personally like a stuffed wheel well so I could go with a 4.5" kit. But it seems that you want to have 6"s of lift so in the case go with a true 6" lift and not a 4" with the 2" spacer. That will be much better on your CV angles and also allow you to go higher down the road if you want to. Bigger tires would really set the look off.
