superlift question

Will a kit off of a 2001 or 2002ish 4x4 Ranger fit on a 2009?

I'm in the position to pick up a used setup, but I just want to make sure before I go buying new wheels and tires. Thanks Guys!

Superlift works for all 4x4 Rangers 98 and up.

Everythings the exact same except for the knuckles, depending on when the kit was originally purchased. (talking as a whole on superlift kits)


There's 3 different Superlift knuckles out there and there's 3 different kit part #'s depending on the year. 98-00 PVH hub. 00.5+ Live Axle with 1 set of caliper holes(discontinued). 00.5+ with 2 sets of caliper holes.


On an 03+, you'd want to make sure the knuckles have dual caliper bracket bolt holes. If it doesn't, you'll have to downgrade your brake rotors to the 11.2" rotors found on 98-02 trucks.

I don't want to downgrade, lol

It'll be obvious... Most likely it'll be a dual hole.

If it's a PVH truck lift(98-00), it'll have single holes and a steel hose through the knuckle above the big hole in the center.
