ooooooooooo....it IS a twin stick!!


Awesome looking truck man. Almost traded mine in a few months back for exactly what you've got. Very Very nice truck man. My dream truck. I think you should get some '06 corners. I think they'll set the truck off even more.

that truck is perfect! i would leave it. you dont need another 3" unless you are going to run 35s, but even then i wouldnt do it. the IFS just struggles with handling 35s...

if you want to add something more i would look into the coilover kit from ORW... now that would really change the ride and make it a nice truck!

Looks great! I like those rims, a lot of jeep guys around here run them but they look good on a ranger too.

maybe even just do the 1 inch body lift mod now, it would look good for sure.

my superlift is sitting in 3 boxes in the garage along with my MT Classics. I'm probably going to get Toyo 33x13.50s.. it should sit about what your truck does.

I think it looks great! Don't body lift it. Who wants those torsion bar brackets hanging another 3" below the body anyway? It looks great as is, I personally wouldn't want to run 35s on the ranger IFS for long.
