Lookin for ideas...............

I've been thinkin bout boxin my frame where the leaf spring brackets are and movin my springs inside the frame to give myself some room for larger tires.........like 325/50R15 ET Streets................

THANKS for your post & suggestions!

 

moving the springs under the frame would be ok, but inside the frame is to far. I plan to inboard my springs under the frame in the near future, but my rig is not for the road.

 

Don't they typically mount coil springs under the frame? If thats the case, as redranger said I'm sure you'd get more than enough room.

I would look at late 90's early 00' S-10 suspension drop kits etc. for ideas.

 

Won't 325/50/15's fit on a ranger without having to move your rear suspension around?

 

4link it with coil overs! :)

 

Ya I know, jump startin an OLD thread, but was lookin through my posts and came across this, so thought I'd post what I ended up doin back in 08 or 09>>>

I ended up movin the springs under the frame usin "factory" 00 Explorer front frame mounts, makin rear mounts for the shackle hangers, I narrowin the rearend by usin 2 right side axles, and centered the chunk since I'm runnin a fuel cell:
