thats kinda of decptive though because he has an FX4 which is an XLT but i think it has a taller rde height than other XLTs. although I might just be referring to 2wd XLTs which are defnately lower than FX4s

I don't think it's deceptive at all! The 4x4 XLT, FX4/LII (which are actually XLT packages) and Edge (both 4x and 2x) all have the same torsion bar suspension and roughly the same ride height from the factory. The only difference is tire diameter.

4x2 XL and XLT models are the only ones w/ non-torsion bar setups and the lower ride height.

I think he may want to see the tallest 2wd XLT. But I could be wrong.

5.5" to be exact, but you can tighten up the coilovers for the extra 1/2" somewhat similar to cranking the torsion bars.

^ YES! RCD makes a kit for 2wd XLTs that looks pretty sweet I think. Maybe look into that one?
