I think it should be left un-touched from this point on.

So with that 4" lift can you fit 35's pretty easy on it? im tied between a 4" or 6" lift, i use it as a dd and 95% for on the road but on occasion i would like to off road. which do you think i should just go for?

You can fit 35s but need to really check the wheel backspacing and width with the lift manufacturer as not all recommended specs are the same. But assuming you have the right sized wheel for the brand lift, I think 4-inches is the perfect amount of lift for tires up to 35-inch tall (I think some tires that are actually a bit taller than 35 inches can be problematic for some systems) to keep the truck reasonably useable for daily use while not being too tall or overly top heavy for moderate off-road use. Usually with the 6-inch lifts there is less concern about clearance with 35-inch tires and wheel offsets.
