Well, since Rangers are typically 1-2 inches lower in the front than in the back mine looks like crap with sagging springs. I'm gonna measure tomorrow to check the full difference. I also have a camber issue. Hopefully different springs will turn / \ into | |

Even if it doesn't I would still need an alignment anyway. But hey, if its align-able without the springs ill just go that route and fix it later when I have more cash.


Alignment only fix? It's changed a bit since I took that photo, I'll try and snap one tomorrow.

But if it's a no on the just alignment, what coils from another vehicle would lift my truck 2-3 inches? With the least amount of modification of course.

I checked prices on leveling coils. 130 plus shipping is way past my budget.

pop off the dust cap and stick a angle finder to the spindle snout end.you can get a general ideal what you camber is at now.then look at what your camber bushing are set at and you can get a fairly good ideal if you can just aline it to the springs then.
