Default Who Makes 4" lifts

I'm looking to lift my truck 4"(I know 6" is cheaper and easier to find but it won't fit in the Garage) I've found the Rancho lift but its pretty pricey wondering if anyone else makes a 4" lift and might be as good or better than Rancho kit but not quite as expensive.

Is it a good kit or is it one of those you get what you pay for?

I haven't seen anyone have any issues with them. If I was buying a 4.5" I would buy it with bilsteins, if that means anything.

Rancho lift's are closer to 5 inches, they usually supply shock's with the lift's and that bump's up the price. They are well made too.

Ya me personally,I'm not a fan of super lift and have heard some negative comments from 2 guys who have it on their truck(their Chevy's tho) when we go up to their cabin.Personally i think the Rancho is better made as one of my ford friends has it and he likes it,but regrets not going bigger,lol

Rough country makes a 4inch lift also,but its junk,stay away from them and its not a complete 4 inch lift

I can't go much bigger than 4" I have a standard garage door. Bigger won't be a problem for me

your remembering to factor in that bigger tires are gonna raise you up an inch or two right?

I have the Rancho 4" and BFG 35" tires on my '08 F150. Truck fits in my standard garage, even with the moon-roof up in the vent position. I believe the truck's maximum height it 6'10.75" and the garage is 6'11.50".
