I'm picking up an 04 Edge Supercab before the years end due to totaling my GTI... I had a 95 XLT ranger as my first truck in high school and various jeeps since then so I have acquired my share of mechanical skills lol. I'm not looking to be off-road, total mall crawler. I want to run a 35/12.50/20 or metric similar. I was planning on 3" body, 3-4" spindle, cranking out the t-bar's, and a 2-3" block/shackle in the rear. Anyone want to give me a heads up on any complications to look forward to?

 

None that you shouldnt already know about, such as the necessity of regearing the rear end to 4.56 or 4.88

 

I would personally avoid the block in the rear.. I took mine out and used explorer springs. Rear end went down about an inch, but it leveled my truck out. Also rides a **** load better w/o the block.

 

What rear end do they use in these Rangers? I might as well just swap in an 8.8 and re-gear that.

 

Depending on what your truck is and what it was ordered with, it might already have an 8.8.

 

I just read your entire build log... So many questions for you!

 

The last guy to run 35s on 20s (Click here)

I plan to run 35s on 20s eventually. Just have to get the lift done.

 

That'll be pretty baller Justin lol

 

Yeah, I think I'm going to go with 20x12s.

 

Someone else did too. I forget who but it was deep wedge wood blue.

 

12 wides would look awesome, Justin.

 

Mark (mlw20lu) was on 20's or bigger at one point or another as well.

 

Yeah, I know Mark had 20x12s with 35s at one time. That's what got me interested in doing it. I'll have to find a pic.

 

Well there is this one, but it's only one wheel and a little bit of yellow. lol.

 

 

They park like I do, right Shaun?

 

lol, a little worse than you.

 

Just wait till Cermont next time. Gotta keep my reputation up.

More then mildly impressive to see a Ranger not totally shadowed by that Powerstroke

 

Yeah, Mark had a really nice truck. It got T-boned while he was getting prepared to do a SAS though.

 

I was about to jump in here and post but it looks like someone beat me to it lol.

 

Yours are nice too lol
