I figure the ride will change a bit with anything out back. But what will the ride be like with a 4" lift leaf pack from anyone?? deaver/atlas/generalspring....im hoping it will be tolerable, i really didnt care for the 1.5" skyjacker aal i had unless i had a tow on it.

You might want to check out a set of BDS lift packs. They only sell to authorized dealers, so shop local first.

I measure a little over 50" in the front and about 47.75" in the rear. Hopefully the 4" leaf pack will put me at dead level or a tad under. yall dont think it will put me over being level do yall? my measurements seem to fluctuate because there isnt really any perfectly level ground to measure from....
