this is the last time ill post about this, i can decide now, 33s or 34s with 3" susp. lift.

i kinda want to get a body lift too, but if i did that, it would be 34s for sure. i dont want to have to regear and all. i want it to look bigger but not loose so much power and gas mileage. im afraid it wont get that much height out of 33s with a susp. lift, please help!

 

i vote 33's... i love them on my truck but i did lose power... what gears do you have now?

 

4:10s

 

If your going to double lift go with 35s, anything smaller is gonna look stupid. Or do a 1" bodylift with suspension and 34s. If you don't want to regear just do, Suspension and 33s.

 

The look of a 3SL and 33's is a great look on rangers IMO. Wouldn't mind going there myself.

 

i haven't been able to find a 1"-2" BL for my year ('03). i would go with that for sure and 34s and be done if only i could find it.

 

you can custom make your BL. If you don't want to regear I'd suggest not getting bigger tires then. If you don't mind regearing then get some 4.56 gears double lift it and throw some 35's on it. that would be much much better.

 

regearing expensive?

 

If you do it yourself you can have it done for around 200, I don't remember gear prices right now. Having it done professionally might be closer to 500 or more depending on who your getting it done with.

 

seems kinda odd that you want to lift your truck but you want good gas mileage????? idk man maybe you schould get yourself a real nice hyundai.......

 

Whys that odd? Not everyone has money to afford 10 MPG or less. I love the looks of a lifted truck but I still want to get decent gas mileage (even thought I'm not really now lol). Regearing doesn't just help with gas mileage and power, it saves unneccesary wear on the tranny and engine.

 

Your pretty close. Here in Md. 2yrs ago I ask a shop and they said $700.00 per axle

 

3" suspension lift and 33's.

 

33s for what your looking for.

 

3" body lift.. or spindle lift... 15x10 wheels and 33x12.5x15

 

...hahahaha... funny guy ^

like 04blackedge says, i want the look of a lifted ranger but still somewhat desent gas mileage..

 

im runnin 33s on stock height no problems and im getting about 200-250 on a full tank...id go with 33s...i duno how u feel about firestone but ive got firestone destination m/t all the way around...the best part is in the winter u can stud em and have even more fun

 

Yeah you can fit 33s on but IMO it looks a little stuffed. If your going to use it offroad, your going to tear up your bumpers and fender flares if you ever flex it a little bit.
