Have a Ram truck and will use for off-roading next month. Planning to get 4" but is 3 okay, is there a difference when you drive it? I won't really do an extreme off road at first but slowly hoping I will. Also, did you guys all add skid plates to ALL under parts?

Will get this 4-inch lift kit https://www.ramsareus.com/sku/p5155393-fs.html. It is above my budget so really hoping you also suggest.
