which coil spacer or leveling kit?
Hello guys,
I have a 91 Ford Ranger 4x4, 5spd, with the 4.0L. I just bought 35x12.50 BFG MTs. The truck currently has about 7 inches lift. A 3" BL and supposedly a 4 inch suspension lift. The rear suspension lift is just a 4 inch block under my leaf spring sitting on my axle. The front was replaced with an F-150 coil. I bought this truck last month so Im not sure how much lift F-150 coil springs actually give.
I want to get a level kit or really just a coil spacer about 2 inches for the front coil. My question is this. Since it is an F-150 coil do I get a spacer for an F-150 coil or the stock Ranger coil? Seems like to me it would be the F-150 but I have no idea since its probably mounted on stock ranger components.
I noticed Summit Racing has a large supply to choose from and I need to gain at least 2 inches for the 35's.
Another option is hacking and trimming my front fenders. I don't mind doing that with this truck because the body is pretty messy already and I'm using it for hunting and off road only on weekends. Are there any examples of how to creatively trim a fender?
I will up update with pictures.
Thanks!
Paul
