Exclamation anyone have a 4" rancho?

Does anyone have pictures of a 2004+ with the 4 inch rancho and 35" tires? I have a 08 super crew 6.5' bed so that would be a plus in the picture but I would love to see any trucks with this setup. Also, how do you like that lift? Pros and cons? I have a chance to get one at less than half price so I want to check out some opions and looks first. Thanks everyone for your help!

Wow that looks a lot taller than i figured it would. There doesn't seem to be a huge difference in the 4" and the 6" like I thought there would be appearance wise. I am thinking I should deffinetly get this lift kit. It looks great!

Yeah thump actually added a spacer in front so his truck sits more like 5.5" of lift.

Here is a rancho 4" with 35s:

Those trucks look great, I just bought that kit! I think I will be pretty happpy with it. I guess I didn't really think about adding a spacer... That would be a good cheap way to get a little more out of my lift. Do you know which spacer he used? Also did he have to put more in the rear or how did that work cause his truck looks level.

Now i just have to decide on wheels... so many choices. Do you guys like that black rockstars will go well with the Oxford white paint on my truck? I haven't really seen that look. I really want them but I saw some black wheels on a white truck the other day and I wasn't sure I liked it...

Actually, the rancho gave you exactly 4" of frame lift. The addition of your larger tires is what gave you the extra 1.5".

Thumper's truck had 5.5" of frame lift with a spacer, with the 35" tires his frame was lifted more like 7.5".

Eitherway, i measured the center wheel arch with the stock tires and the 35's. frame lift? who measures the frame? unreal, someone who doesnt have a rancho on his truck telling me how much it lifted mine either way its a great kit. its almost the same height as a 6 inch pro comp. 07fx4silver is at 45 inches at the wheel arches and im at 44 3/8". there's always someone that has to argue with you.
