suspension question

Alright so I've been researching on how to best lower my truck (99 b2500 2wd) it has the front coilover suspension. I found some 3in. drop coils for the front that are made for 98-06 ford ranger non-splash edition. would these happen to fit my truck? I'm new to the truck scene, and I have no knowledge in the relationship of rangers and the b-series mazdas. thanks in advance!

These trucks are basically identical except for the bodywork most of the guts are identical. The coils should work fine i did 2inch drop coils from a thunderbolt ranger on my 03 and had no issues i don't think there can be that much difference in them they only do one job. And if you do it i strongly suggest the lowering bump stops my 2inch drop almost rides on them I'm looking for a good set for mine when my rear drop kit gets here.

No problem but to be 100% cross reference the lower control arm part numbers for a ranger and your truck of the same year if they match then that means the coil mounts will be the same.
