How can I level my 2011 2.3L Ranger?
I’ve been looking online and through the forums but I cannot seem to find a leveling kit for my 2011 2.3L Ranger. I also want to put 33s on it, would I have to regear it ? It has an automatic trans. please help. |
Welcome to the forum
I assume the back is higher than the front? Look at the rear axle and see if there are spacer blocks between axle and leaf springs, if so they can be removed to lower it, you need new u-bolts, shorter 2"-3" body lift would allow 33" to fit, how-to here: Body Mount Replacement And Body Lift Installation : The Ranger Station Look at drivers door label to find your AXLE code: Ford 7.5 & 8.8 Inch Axle Tag & Door Codes : The Ranger Station You don't want to go below about a 3.50 ratio, the lower the ratio the lower the torque to rear wheels, but the higher the top speed So higher ratio, 3.73 to 4.56 is better if you are not racing above 80MPH all the time You can plug your numbers in here: </TITLE> <link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/gif" /> <script LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> </script> <STYLE TYPE="text/css" /> </STYLE> </HEAD> <body bgcolor="#000000" text="#000000" link="#000080" vlink="#000080" alink="#000080"> <html> <head> If you have 27" tires now, and 3.73 rear axle ratio Then 33" tires would change it to an actual 3.05 ratio, not alot of get up and go Changing rear axle to 4.56 ratio would restore actual ratio to 3.73(with 33" tires), so same as it is now Weight of the 33" tires would still be in play so not EXACTLY the same Speedometer will need to be recalibrated for these changes |
I realize it's an older one, but I'm gonna jump in on this thread. I have a 2010 2WD XLT. After a fair amount of research, I've decided not to mess with coil spacers, and from what I hear spindles won't work with RSC, so I've settled on the Maxtrac 2" leveling coils. I shot them an email and got a prompt response from one of their reps assuring me that my UCAs wouldn't be maxed out after the install and the truck would align just fine. He wasn't able to verify with 100% certainty that I wouldn't have issues with the RSC, but I don't think it will. Anyone on here use these? I'm planning on giving them a shot - fingers crossed. I'll let you know how it works out.
