I wheel spacer makes the wheels and tires stick out farther. Has absolutely nothing to do with the suspension of the truck. And the sagging is the ranger lean. All rangers have them.

Post a picture. Either way wheel spacers won't do anything for lean. You probably have something wrong with a leaf, spring perch or shackle.

You don't have coil springs in the back either. You can run a 1.5" block in the rear instead of the 1" that is in there now. That slight lift should make a difference.

Post a picture so we can see how much it is off.

You can create an album through your profile and upload it that way or use a photo hosting site like photbucket or imageshack.
