Default rcx 6 inch + rancho quicklift

hi guy's i have a 2011 ram 1500 with a rcx 6 inch lift kit anyone try that setup and rancho quick lift ? i have ordered the bilstein but was on back order so i cancel my order and look for the rancho , i know the rancho give a 2 inch lift, like the bilstein except they're not adjustable , but i have to use the rcx block on top of strut to have the proper lift and i don't know if this gonna work because of the design of the rancho strut ?

I dont have a 6in lift, but i did install the Bilistein 5100. Them and the Ranchos will both give you lift that should replace any lift blocks that where added. They also make it super stiff after you install them in the front, which in my opinion i liked, it gives less body roll on turns and what not.

So installing the lift struts will compensate for the blocks or if you leave them if there is enough space it can lift your front end even higher but you will have to worry about CV angles and the Upper Control Arms

I already have a 6 inch lift and if i remove the block it gonna have a big drop in the front even with the bilstein set a the max ! my main concern is if i buy the rancho , it come complete , strut coil top etc.. does it will fit , because the design of the top and coil seem different from original so if i can't bolt up to my block i'm gonna stuck with, even if the coil hit the bigger knuckle i'm gonna be stuck too that's why i'm asking if anybody have already this setup

You should take some pictures, that makes helping a lot easier if we can see the problem.
