I-beam 4 inch Rough Country lift

So my mom told me the other day when I get 2k in my bank account she’ll let me get a lift and some tires and wheels for the ranger. I’ve already decided some vision soft 8 wheels that are 15x10 and a set of 31x10.50r15 Accelera MT-01 tires for it. I’m looking at the rough country 4 inch lift. What are y’all’s opinions on it

You aren't looking for mileage lifting anything, especially a ranger. You'll have to regear to have the *** to push those tires down the road.

throw mileage out the window.. you would need at least 4.56s for a 2.3 and 31s. and even that might not be enough. the 2.3 was no power house

I mean it’ll push 31s down the road right now. I’m just putting a lift on so I can space them out and have offset.
