2004 Ex lift question

I have been reading all of the forums and am more confused than ever. I want to lift my excursion and put either 33 or 35 on it (I would like to keep some fuel mileage). What is the best, safest, most comfortable riding lift? Price is a consideration but only slightly. I will pay more for something better.

I intend to put a 4 or 6in BDS on mine now. A lot of people on here use the ATS set up for theirs and speak really well of that set up. They are still in the mix for me but I wanted to get more lift then what I would get with them. That being said, everyone talks really well about the ride after installing the ATS system.

Carli is one of the best "off the self" shock tuners out there, also has a great reputation for solid engineering.

Just this weekend installed the ATS spring setup. Installation went well. When I ordered it I told Junior what I was doing with it, weight I was going to carry and tow, and was going to run 35's

I too was confused initially by all the options. ATS made it simple. There are no spacer blocks other than the factory.
