Default If I just lifted my truck instead....
of leveling it... would they be able to make it level during the lifting process or is that impossible?

99% of the time lifts also level the truck. The usual 4" lift lifts the back 2" and the front 4"

Yeah basically ever 6" lift you see is 6" in the front and 3" in the back. It is just much more expensive to lift than level, especially install costs if you don't know how to install it yourself.

Also, if you lift it you typically want to get new tires, because the stock ones will look significantly disproportionate.

suspension lifts also level, body lifts lift the entire truck uniformly...
