Hey guys, I'm new to this Ranger Forum shin-dig. I'm looking into putting a SUMMIT lift kit onto my truck. 2-3 inches. What BFG tire size do you suggest?? Thanks for the help.

 

from the looks of the avatar i am guessing your an edge... so you want 2-3" of what body suspension? more info about truck and everything would help

 

I'm guessing Summit 3" body lift. Go with a 33x12.5x15 or a 305/70/16

 

More info... It's an 04 EDGE. Everything is stock. Tire's life is coming to an end and I have some dough to start with the upgrades. I'll be doing most of the work myself. I guess any other info you need to help me out, lemme know. I appreciate it guys

 

What Trent said is correct. That is if you wanna do a bodylift.

 

still didnt say if he wanted suspension or body lol... or if its 2wd or 4x4...

 

Welcome to RF!!

Make a sig (year, model, engine, and some details on the truck). It'll be easier to help you out in the future.

 

I figured summit doesn't sell a 3" suspension lift for any torsion bar truck so it could only be one thing

 

they also dont sell a 2" body lift for his year either thus why i asked he could be looking at those T-bar key's god knows what he is looking at instead of just ASSuming trent thats why we ask questions, welcome to the forum i am not just gonna shout out things why he hasnt fully explained what he wants, he's been very vague on what he is doing...

 

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today...no one is going to die because I gave him information on what tire to run if he uses a body lift, chill out

 

Zach always wakes up on the wrong side of the bed. Look at all his posts. They are all angry.

I think he's mad because Hoz isn't there to protect him :(

But I do agree with both of you, more info is needed!

 

where did i say someone is gonna die? not seeing it... i said ASSuming.. nothing about dieing..

 

no you view them as angry....


did i put this little guy next to it :



....no

 

Hmm....sorry for still being vague but can I ask how the heck we got on the topic of someone dying??? Haha ok. So, everything on my truck. Here we go. It's a 2004 2wd Ranger EDGE. I want to put a lift on it. Like I said SUMMIT was what I was looking into. If you think suspension is more necessary for this lemme know. What would you recommend?
I want to give it a little solid 3in lift max, with some mudders with blk rims. I'd like to put a Bull Bar on as well. Play with the lights a bit and then eventually install a bunch of electronic stuff inside. Oh and exhaust hehe FlowMaster =) THANKS GUYS APPRECIATE THE PATIENCE AND HELP

 

I'm a fan of body lifts personally, this is the one you would need

I can't tell if your rims are 15" or 16"

My Flowmaster Super 44 sounds AWESOME on my 3.0

 

i suggest to get cooper stt in 31" and 2" lift, cooper's last longer and balance alot better :), just my 2 cents, also, im not very fimiliar with 2wd but, i think suspension lift, like spindles, would be much better for ride quality, but like i say, im not fimiliar with the years you can use all the different types of lifts on 2wd.

 

And what 2" lift is he going to get?

 

body lift, look in summit's catalog, :p

 

They don't sell a 2" BL for 98+ Rangers, no one does.

 

So SUMMIT it is then??? Or what are you thinkin 04blackedge???

 

I'd go with the summit BL personally, cheap, proven, effective. You could run 3" lift spindles for the front but its more expensive. Steer clear of torsion keys all together.

 

Oh, I'll also be doing most of the upgrades myself. Never put a lift on myself. Pretty easy? Or am I in for a treat?

 

jus go with the SUMMIT 3" body lift and 33'' tires. im running a 3"BL and 285/75R16 on my truck and i love it. i couldnt justify spending $1700-$2300 on a suspension lift. in your case its a little cheaper due to you having 2wd and the option of lift spindles. but ill speak from experiance and say i ws against a bodylift but now(after installing it) i love it.

 

depends.... would you say your are decent in the field of mechanics?

and i myself have never done a bodylift till my truck. so jus from my mechanical background, (info i got from here and other members), i got it installed in a days worth of work. Dumpedmk3 also helped out and was working with me on it.

also i have pictures of the whole thing through out the process.... plus i could help you along if nedded.

 

figure i would ***** off my truck to give you an idea..... keep in mind i also have t-bar crank and chevy shackles so a total of 5 inches of lift and 33"
