with 4x4 you want the extra ground clearance. Also it looks like your truck sits higher. If you take your truck off road and haven't taken it off, you may end up doing it anyway. lol If you have a 2wd you don't usually go too crazy off road and it also gives the truck a better/lower profile for a street truck.

i like it, it does make the truck look higher, i may do it. i may do it to mine, even tho its 2wd. but i dont want it to brake when i go off road, i go almost everywhere 4wd go. lol, but its only cuz my friends will pull me out, i never go alone. but anyways keep it off

eh most 4 wheeling i do anymore is to get to fishing holes. some of those are a b*tch to get to. but i can do most everything around my place in 2 wheel except for the few illegal places to go which require 4
