Lifting rangers
I've been a ranger owner since 1985, but i don't understand why people when lifting their trucks will do it this way: (for example) 3"suspension lift, 3" body lift with aal's/blocks and spindles. why not just get a 6 inch suspension lift?or a 4" body lift? and what does a "double lift" mean?
if it's a suspension lift and a body lift, why not just get one or the other? it would make more sense to have one "lift" done than several small ones |

another main reason is cost, that would be why i have a body lift over a superlift.. is just cost. does the same thing of allowing me to fit 33's for cheaper
|
is this a serious thread?
sometimes there is no 6" lift available some people can't afford a 6" lift the t-bar rangers are limited to the 5" RCD, the 3" body lift would give them even more.. and hence "double lift" cause it has 2 lifts on it.. |
Is this thread cereal?
The reason: is the avaliability of lift kits. Torsion bar 2wd's only option is a 3" spindle. There's no 6" lift out there for them, unless they go camburg. Me......on my torsion bar 4x4.....I would be plenty happy with a 6" suspension lift...but...none exist for my truck. It's all about lift kit availability. There aren't much options. |

I thought they made a 6" kit for 2wd Torsion bar Rangers(other than Camburg)?? |

thanks for the info, guys.

As well, a 4 inch body lift will be a death trap on the road. There is too much leverage caused by the chassis when lifted that high off the frame. The bolts will literally shear right off.

Camburgs is a 5.5" for Coil Spring.
Fab-Tech offers 5.5 by this method, 3 inch spindle and 2.5 Coil and new UCA for 5.5" Net lift or just 3" or just 2.5". Then you can mix and match a body lift in there for what ever reason if so desired. |
