!998 would be the earliest I believe. Are they pre 2007 keys? If so I might be interested in buying them from you.

Oh I thought the OP was talking about a set of the torsion keys that provide extra lift, not stockers.

After I do my RCD install I will have the stock keys from my 99 available if anyone is interested. I'm not sure when I'll have the install done, but I will let everyone know when they become available.

I don't know yet! I haven't looked into it too much. It won't be that much. I'll let you know when they are ready.

Sounds like the guys at 4 wheel parts lol. I wanted to buy a winch and the first questions they asked me were "what year Ranger?" and "what size engine is this for?" ...idiots.
