Here a link to the spring isolator I installed on the top and bottom of the springs. My spring were making a metal on metal rubbing noise, and these stop it.

Personally, I would recommend thrust bearings, such as these ones over the rubber isolators.

Could you give more payment details. Like pay via Pay Pal, $ amount, I know it's somewhere in the previous threads but maybe you'll get faster payments with more info. Thanks.

Please put your R-F screen name in the description field so I can keep things straight.
Also, put in if it's raw or powdercoated.

I'm sure you could have just copied the info up here again - I know he will need to update the payment status, but the general info should be current.

I've done it numerous times over the years & I haven't even purchased any from him! lol

Always glad to help another member that's performing a service by making custom parts that many have refused to do!




Member Selling These: ME00Stepside
Send payment to: sbeau1 (at) metrocast (dot) net

Latest Pricing:
Kit with powdercoated brackets: $290
Kit with raw brackets: $270

Shipping:
$17 US
$46 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

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.

2. boyd_835 - powdercoated - USA
3. What7u - raw - Canada

Thanks Logan!

Guys, stock is ordered, and I'm just waiting on the shop to start cutting. There are a lot of people on the list, but less than a third paid so far. Once all the parts are cut, I'll be having them welded. This should be happenening about the second week of February. Please try to get your payments in by then. If I'm not seeing a substantial portion of the list paid, I'm going to have them welded in a small batch to cover what's paid plus a few extras. I don't want to end up paying the welder and buying the hardware if some sets are going to sit for 3 months (this happened the last round). I wish I could just keep these "in stock" at all times, but my money is tight right now and I can't afford to have a bunch of stuff made and stocked in my garage. (Nor do I have the room for piles of parts. LOL)

Hopefully I'll get to this point, but right now, my stuff still needs to be made to order.

Just copy and yourself to the list and I'm pretty sure he can add extra brackets on as long as he's still in the process of making them which he is

Throw your name on the list. If this run goes like the last few, there will be unclaimed kits. I can't guarantee you'll get one from this run, but if you can pay immediately, subscribe to this thread. When I get the batch done and ready to ship, I'll give warning before I start jumping places on the list.

Also, if things are going well, I can easily start another batch right away.

Picture of the 'kit': https://www.ranger-forums.com/suspen...6/#post1941575

Pricing & Current Order List: Scroll up.

Details: You're going to have to put in the legwork & click the 'next page' button & absorb the information provided over the past 3 years. However, if you have a specific question, I'm sure we can answer it.

Thanks Logan.

A quick few questions if u can answer them.
This will eliminate the torsion bars right, but this doesnt provide lift correct?
Is there welding involved?

Where does one get the coil springs???

Thanks.
