a few ideas

93_RangerSC · Apr 22, 2008

hey yall gotta run an idea by yall to see if it would be wise to do this.
alright i figured i only need about a 3-3.5" lift and I i really dont feel like spending alot sooo heres what im thinkin about doin
1-buyin some rough country leveling coils
2-buyin the fat bobs 2inch lift kit(set of coil spring spacers and an add-a-leaf)
3-and buying some belltech shackles i can get them for about $30
all in all this will only cost me about $230 as i can do this at school during autotech :icon_welder:

is this a good idea or should i just figure something else out? :icon_confused:

You're forgetting alignment issues. You'll need some drop brackets w/ that or your front wheels will be \ /

true...where could i get some cheap drop brackets?

4x4junkie · Apr 22, 2008

Yep, 2" lift max without replacing the brackets.

do the 2 inch leveling kit, then a 2 inch body lift, that will be your cheapest bet.

93_RangerSC · Apr 22, 2008

damn....bout how much lift do yall think i would get with just the leveling coils, add-a-leafts, and shackles?

would i need to extend my brake lines on that small of a BL?

Body lifts dont bother the brake lines. They only affect the ones from the Master cylinder. I dont have any experiance with body lifts but I believe that there is enough stretch in the brake lines to not require any modifications with body lifts. a 2" suspension lift with stock shocks will not require extended brake lines.

dont think u need to do xtended brake lines with a body lift.

In the rear i would only do a leaf or a shackle, not both, that will lift u about 4 inches and be way higher than the front.

bodylifts do not require any extended brake lines ever, they will reguire a steering extension(usually included) and a optional shifter extension. i say 2" susp lift, 2" body lift.

thanks yall for all of your help :icon_cheers:

so i guess the best thing would be do the rough country Leveling Coils, an add-a-leaf in the rear and a 2inch BL
