"Suspension Lift"?

New to the Ranger community. I'm LOVING my 2009 Ranger XLT 4x4 Manual.

I'm exploring options for upgrading the shocks to provide better performance and ideally a couple extra inches of lift so that I can get some bigger tires on it. The purpose is for some off-roading primarily in snow (I live in Northern Ontario).

This is also my daily driver.

i recommend the superlift 4 inch lift kit. it works with 15+ inch rims. rough country also works but you need at least a 17 inch rim.

that makes no sense troublemusket, rim size has nothing to do with a lift, its the back spacing you worry about after the lift when you put new tires and rims on it

if you reference the Rough Country website it states ​​​​​that the 5 inch lift can not work with 16 inch or smaller wheels.



that the 5 inch lift can not work with 16 inch or smaller wheels.
