Rancho 4" Lift for '04-'08 F150

Looking for a Rancho 4" lift for my 2007 F150. The Rancho is the only lift I know if that allows me to use my stock wheels. Any ideas for a new or used one? I have scoured the internet without success. Thanks!

I heard today that the foundry where the knuckles were fabricated was unwilling to make them in reduced quantities due to a decrease in demand. The Rancho representative said that he wished they would put the 4" lift back into production because he has had a lot of interest in that lift since it was discontinued. I sent Rancho an email and asked them to please offer them again. Probably fell on deaf ears though. I'll keep looking.

I think the other issue is $. You can get a 3" level and block kit for $350. To go another inch taller you enter the $2-3k kits. I'm sure plenty of people went with the 3inch kit and saved their money leaving an abundance of 4" lift kits collecting dust. Eventually causing the manufacturers to stop producing a product that wasn't making them money

I guess at the end of the day the demand for the 4" lift just was just not enough to keep it in production. I'm not in a big hurry so I'll keep on the lookout for a used one and if I get impatient my local shop has been puching the 4.5" Superlift or maybe I will buck up for the RCD which allows me to do a 4" or 6" if I get the bug to go higher.

The Rancho is what I really want though.....
