Okay, Guys and Gals on R-F. I need some help.
I want any and all opinions on what i should do.
Should i go Lower?
OR
Should i go Higher?

 

What is your goal with the truck? Do you like to offroad or cruise the street? What kind of shape is the truck in already? Need something to work with.

 

Lower, there aren't as many lowered trucks here

 

I like going offroad, but i have a 2wd and the body lift kits are way to much and a pain to put in.
The truck is basically stock.

 

There not that much of a pain. Here is my 2wd with 3" spindles and some 1" lift coils. 33x12.5x15 Cooper STT's, 15x10 cragers.

 

That is almost the same truck i have.
wanna trade?

 

It doesn't look like that anymore and I no longer own it but I do still know the owner. lol

 

I vote lower it 2/3.

 

fat chicks can't jump, lift it

 

I say lower it

 

i like the way you think lol

 

Okay, i havent quiet figured out if i want to go higher or not, but how many people put lights behind there grill and where did yall mount the switch?

 

my old 05 2wd with a body lift, 1 inch coil lift and stock 4x4 axle blocks on 31s

 

If you think lifting it will be a PITA, lowering will be just as bad... and if you go too low, even oil changes will be a pain... Having to jack it up, take the drain plug out, drop it down so its level when it drains... Jack it back up to change the filter and put the drain plug back in...


I like the look of lowered rangers better, but you got to think about everything.

(just had to change the oil on my car the other day and it made me miss my ranger more... oil changes were so quick on that thing)

 

Just dump it on the ground. I loved lowered rangers. Want to take it offroad go buy a cheap 4x4. if you wanted offroad you would have bought a 4wd right? either way will be fun. if you wanna smash around in the dirt then lift it. if you wanna smash around on the streets then dump it. I would say if its really beat up lift it. lol My vote is slam it personally. Since yours is really clean. Went on your profile and checked it out. nice looking truck btw.

 

funny but true…

Raise it !

IMHO… 2wd Rangers with a locker/tires/gearing can go a long way on the trail and I think they look good jacked/tires/rims/custom touches.

See what I mean…

At least not the paint job...

 

lay it out on the ground like TX and Billy. 2wds should be layn frame not lifted

 

lower it. if i even bought a 2wd it would be on the ground

 

No! No! No!
Pls, drop it if if you must but not this !

This will require a lot of body work or new side panel for the bed and new frt fenders.
Maybe more expensive than a BL and T-Bar crank.
