3" body lift help
#1
#11
I am also interested in the 3" body-lift. Right now I am on the 14" stock rims, but would like to go bigger. I'm a noob, reading the forums as best I can but the Tire chart to me is confusing. Also mentioned is the need for new gears (?). I was hoping someone could clarify how much bigger I could go without or with gearing mod's?
Thanks for the heads up on the steering column extender. This site rules!

ok First this thread was about his kit missing the steering shaft extension..
now your jacking and want to know your tire size... start a new thread...
another HOW is the tire chart confusing... kinda plain and simple...

The tire chart is not clear because this is my first vehicle. Google searches are great, but I haven't found anything that has explained it sufficiently clearly.

ok well i guess im special. i put 15 x 10s on my truck with no problems just a little trimming on the front bumper. then i put 31s on them with no problems. i just put the body lift on today with no steering extension with no problems, and i had some 33s put on it this afternoon with no problems. is my ranger different? i have ONLY a 3 inch body lift on my truck with ONLY 2 inches of the front bumper cut.

if you read that quote you would have noticed it said 98-00 2wd...
you will have binding problems with out the steering extension.. the steering shaft does telescope but it is maxed with out that extension..
2" off the front bumper is ALOT... your t-bars must be very sad..
