Got my first ranger about a month and a half ago. Its a 05 EDGE 4.0 4x2. I had intentions of putting a 3" Fabtech spindle lift, aal's and chevy shackles.

This is what sucks- Fabtech has not been manufactoring any spindles for the 05 EDGE for the last 2 months, and wont be "fabbing" them any time soon.

Anyone know of other spindle options? Im a lil scared of Doetsch/Springtech, only cause everyone here reccomends Fabtech. Camburg is just wayyyy too pricey.

Either way, if i have to go Doetsch/Springtech 3" spindle, I def want blistens shocks all the way around. 5100's seem to be the reccomended ones, but is there any other info I need to know before I place the order for the shocks?

Thanks for any info provided

THIS SITE IS THE SHI*****!!!!

 

i cant help you out with your questions, but welcome!

 

i have doestch...work great...
i dont jump with it cause its cast..its cast so is fabtech...dont forget...

 

Performance Lifts has them. out of stock for right now though.
PerformanceLifts.com -- Fabtech 2001-2007 3" Lift Spindle - Edge & Sport

Theres a thread on here i read that Doetsch/Springtech lift spindles are very good. you may also get a warranty with them, im not sure though.

Oh, and Welcome to the site. It is, indeed, the ****!

 

i'd go with doetshe or springtech, they are out of the same mold, btw if u are gonna jump or run hardcore fast camburg ftw...btw welcome!!!

 

Haha! Thanks guys but no jumping the ranger for me. Its still new(to me). When I start getting dings and dents, I'll prob wheel it more and harder. Needs off-road lights so I can see comming home out of the trails.

 

Save your money up and go with a Mid-Travel Kit from Camburg. You can do a simple Entry level 6.0 or go with a Performance 6.0 that runs dual Bilistein shocks. If you do it right might as well do it once and the first time. I know some people have had good luck with doestech some have not. Me personally I should have gone with the Camburg in the first place. But my fabtech gets me around and does the job. Just my .02 cents.

lmao ive never seen dints and dings from a jumping mid travel truck...its not body damage or laid the fawk over...btw hid lights ftw...its worth the extra no glare penny yo!!!! i didnt thing so till i added my hid's ftfawkinw


btw...for what u pay for the fabtech $700+, you can spend teh extra change for the good shiat, ull be glad u did i promise

 

I would recommend against Fabtech. All I see are bent or broken snouts. I have a buddy that works there and he would never run their stuff on his truck.

 

its all gravvy if u are a mall crawler...but what looks better than a Camburg sticker right?
