Anyone install the Rancho 4" lift kit yet?

I was wondering if anyone has installed the Rancho Nissan Titan 4" RS6594B suspension lift kit yet? IMO the 6" is a bit much, and the 2.5 leveling kit + the 1.5 rear blocks is not quite enough.

Interested in what people have to say, I also think that 4" is just about the right height for me since Im not too tall, with the 4" lift from rancho our trucks are not supposed to loose turn radius(like with other lifts) which is already bad from stock.

I don't think the kit has been released for public sale yet. I did see the prototype installed on Rancho's Titan. It fit 35" tires and stood at a nice height, although the rear needed to come down a couple inches (it looked like a stick bug with its arse up in the air).

So the brake lines have to be replaced? does it affect brake performance? why aftermarket brake lines? sorry for the ignorance

If they are braided steel lines they probably help braking performance.

Typically brake lines are replaced because the lift makes longer lines necessary.
