lift kit replcaement

I have a 2003-PSD-6.0.L crew cab king ranch. It currently has a superlift 4" lift kit that came with it from previous owner. I Think it really rides rough and was wondering if the Donahoe racing lift is really that much better ride quality. Or could it just be the shocks (Pro-Comp)? Also my 4" lift does not have a track bar drop bracket or new drop pitman arm. Should I be running this to improve the steering and handling? I have had lots jeeps and we always put these on when lifting them to improve the ride. Any feedback would be great!

You could try adjustable shocks. What tire pressure are you running ?

I have the DR 4" lift on my truck. Very satisfied with the ride. Not as good as stock but good enough. A buddy has a 97 F350 CC longbed, the ride is similar to that. Another friend has same truck as me but with a generic all spring 6" lift, stiff as hell. If you do a search you'll find varying opinions but most will agree that the DR lift is the best riding. And usually the priciest.
