sagging rear end
Hi guys,
I have an '02 Ranger 2x with 80,000 miles.
I recently added a class 3 hitch and saw the rear end drop slightly.
It seems it is still sagging, and when I throw the sand bags in it really drops!
I was wondering if new shocks would help, or if you all had any suggestions.
Thanks!

it will hold more weight and i think is just bolt on.
you will have to remove the rear block because the springs will lift it up a bit.
but ya just search around on it

Is this something you've done b4?

a simple AAL from summit will stiffen the ride a little but not uncomfortably, it will return the rear-end to stock ride height and take more payload and not sag.
chevy springs would give you almost 2" lift in the rear in addition to what the AAl provides

up to you. leavin em filled with alot of pressure will affect how the truck rides and also the amount of strain on the upper shock mounts. smaller pressures will have lesser effects. i have run them on rangers, and have never had any issues with them.
depending on the size of your boat you may also look into a set of load helper air springs. they are a small air bag mounted over the leaf. they can handle higher loads than a simple airshock and wont affect the shock mounts any.
