What is the advantage of putting your bolts in the 4 inch holes and using 6 inch lift springs.

Usually it's a little easier to align by doing that.

Yup, it works better on 4.0L extended cab trucks and on the explorers as well.

They are heavier and don't get the full 6" of lift from the springs.

More clearance under the axle too.

This works best on Supercab Rangers and 4-door Explorers. Aligning it correctly might be hit or miss on lighter trucks though.
