Just get the six since it's the same lift. Just don't put the aal in and don't crank as far. Then if you want to go bigger later on you can.

after doing much research on this topic I would HIGLY suggest you get a simple 2" lift with keys and add-a-leafs...
reasons:
no need to buy longer shocks, or any kind of extension brackets
stock sway bar end-links will still work and not snap (as easily)
the suspension will be stiffer and more responsive for better driving =)
easy to install yourself.
will not ruin the CVC axle angles from the diff... meaning youll be less likely to snap one, less likely to get "death wobble" and suspension problems

rough country makes a "3 inch lift kit" but consumer reports say that its problematic and rips CV boots.....

simple 2" will give you lift, drivability, and compatibility. AND be cheaper

The Rough Country lift set at four inches will give you completely flat angles. Look up Bluex when he was running smaller tires and they were amazing! This was mine cranked up to about five and they weren't bad at all

So much wrong with this statement.
Don't need to replace the keys for 2".
Long shock will help it ride better.
CV angles will be worse and hard wheeling could be a problem.

its how my truck is set up.
its a happy and capable medium for everything

though in retrospect, yeah, new keys were probably unnecessary. just tighten the bolts.

I'm cranked a couple inches, it rides ok. In and attempt to get it to ride better I did a ball joint flip and intended on getting longer shocks but life got in the way.
