Default Looking to get the 4x4 stance on my 2wd?!

Hey guys I'm new to the forum. I'm looking to get my 2005 ford f150 XLT supercrew 2wd to about the same height as the stock 4x4s?. I will be getting a full lift/leveling kit install in about a month and I was wondering would this bring me up there with the stock 4x4s?
The kit has 3in spacers for the front and 3in block for the rear .The company I'm getting the lift for said it would have the same height or a little bit more height than the fx4s. Is this true? Would this give me the same height as the stock 4wds? All input is welcome. Pics too

You should be sitting just a tad bit higher in the front and rear. More if you add bigger tires.

I took my 2wd and put a 3" front 2" rear leveling kit and put305/70R 17's on it and it sits about 1" higher than my buddies stock F150 4x4. If you put a leveling kit on it, I would stock shocks with some heavy duty ones that give you a little more travel. It will help take some of the stress off of your U-joints and stuff and give you a better ride.

None of our trucks side by side. My profile picture is my truck lifted with the bigger tires. I haven't changed my shocks out yet because I got deployed but its one of the 1st things on my list once I get home. After the suspension settled I was still about 2 1/2 inches in the front and 1 3/4 inch in the back.
