Here is all the info:

Pricing:
$335 shipped to the US
$375 shipped to Canada

Kit includes:
4 brackets (2 upper, 2 lower)
4 gussets to reinforce shock tower
2 shock tower spacers for upper mounts
8 rod end spacers (for 1/2" wide rod ends--like Fox)
All hardware to install--grade 8 zinc plated

What else you will need:
2 coilover shocks
2 coil springs
2 limit straps and brackets (do NOT skip these!)

What you may need:
Bump stops if you are lifting your truck at the same time, but if you already have a Superlift, or if you are remaining at stock height, you can reuse what you have. You simply need to trim back the bracket on the frame where the bump stop mounts, so that the coilover will clear it. You then redrill a hole in the remaining part of the bracket and mount the bump stop further in. Depending on your bumpstop, you may want to have a tab welded onto your LCA to give you a flatter area for the bump stop to contact. I would suggest moving the bump stop before you have the gussets welded, so you can have this done at the same time.

To order:
1. Send payment to sbeau1 (at) metrocast (dot) net.
.......include in your instructions that it's for Ranger coilover brackets, and your R-F user name
2. Post pics of your install!

Note: these are usually made to order. I place the order with the shop when I receive payment. There are 3 different steps involved, so please be patient once you have ordered: First the main shop cuts all of the pieces, and makes the spacers. Second, the welder assembles them. Third, they are sent to the powder coat shop for finishing. Each step typically runs anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks. During this time, I make sure that I have the hardware I need, so that when I get them back from powder coat, I can simply box them up and ship them out. Right now, the average turn around time is about 5 weeks, but I tell everyone 4-6 weeks to be safe.

Email is always the best method to get in touch with me:

sbeau1 (at) metrocast (dot) net
I don't come on here very often, and usually when I do, I find a message that is at least a few weeks old.

Thanks to all of you guys for the support in making these. I'm happy to be able to offer something to the RBV community.
