Default Show me some 4" Rancho Lifts!

Just want to see some 04-08's with a 4" rancho lift? I already have a 2.5" level in the front and was wondering what the approximate cost would be for the 4" rancho lift. I just put on new rims and tires and plan to keep them. I'm running a 17x9 HELO rim with a -11 mm offset with fierce attitude 285/65/R17 tires (which correct me if i'm wrong...i believe its close to a 33x12.5...) I think for the purpose of functionality a 4" lift would be perfect for my truck, and I know rancho is the best option. Any input would be great!

I think if you would want a 4 inch lift I would definitely consider some 35's. Your 33's look very small on a 4 inch rancho. Search ATOM. He had a 4inch rancho years ago. It was a sharp truck.

If I do get the lift I plan on going to 35" tires but I'm having trouble finding a lift package by rancho for 2004-2008 F-150s. I'm not sure if they still make one or not.

Here's my truck with 35's and leveled. I'm thinking a 4 inch suspension lift with my level and 37's will be perfect.

I'm at the same point with mine...trying to stick between $1500-$2000 for a 4 inch lift.

From what I've seen the price difference from a 4 and 6 inch lift is only $100-$200 and I've seen them around $1200-$1400. Now for the money I'd go with a 6 inch, but because my truck sits so high with a level and I'll be re-using my Rancho QL struts with the lift I'll get 6 inches total from a 4 inch and I'm not going bigger than 37's. I re-geared to 4.56's for 35's and love it. I'll get longtubes, custom tune, E-fans to pick up enough power for the bigger tires.... And maybe a little 100 shot of nitrous for when I need a little more power getting thru a mud hole.

I picked up a Rough Country 4" lift about a month ago off Kijiji for $500, getting a buddy of mine who's a mechanic to help me put it on this weekend hopefully. I'll be running 17x9 Eagle alloys with -11 offset and Eldorado MTZ 285/65/17 tires so it should be close to the set-up your planning. I'll post pics when it's done.
