By going to the 4th you add more preload so the front will be a little stiffer. Static ride height is higher so you lose a small amount of droop as well (in favor of uptravel). I didn't try the 3rd, just went straight to the 4th so I can't speak to it much, but I suspect it's not a huge huge difference.
I think I’ll keep it on the 3rd as a good balance. I do some off-road trails locally but mostly highway cruising.
 
Here's mine with the HD rears and Clip 5 in the front

3 all around
love the bit of factory rake
It doesn't look like much rake, what is the front and rear difference? Would the HD spring produce more rake with 3 all around?
 
HD will give more rake for sure. Standard to HD with no other changes gave me nearly a full inch extra height in the rear.
 
I currently have on perch 5 with OME 2701 rear springs. Went through almost all the replies on this thread and went for the OME 2701 to avoid the sag that I’ve seen when loaded.

Do not regret it at all. When I have the whole family wife n 3 kids fully loaded for camping the OME levels out nicely with the front and no sag. Pic here is sitting empty and after 2-3 years on the setup.

Don't forget that airbags are often the right choice to augment the non-HD springs (to overcome the sag on the loaded-up days, and otherwise enjoy the non-harsh ride).

Do you mean 2721 rear springs?
 
My bad you are correct.

Yes, I have a set of those as well.

Thinking will install those at a later date after storage and such is added, will be awhile
