Don't bend the rod, you'll never get it right doing that. You can just unbolt the body of the valve mechanism (2 bolts), then buy and cut 2 pieces of steel tubing about 2 inches long - buy longer bolts and bolt it in. I got a lifted truck from japan that had it done and that's what I do with all my trucks now.

If you bend the rod on a 4 inch lift it might work but won't actuate the same way - if anything you would have to lengthen the rod.

Add spacers is my recommendation.
