Leveling 1985 ranger

Midnight Rider · Nov 23, 2008

I have a 1985 ranger 4 x 4 with a 2.3L engine. I want to level the front it is 2 inches lower then the back, I just put 31's on it and have to level it. I want to use coils, my question is, if I put a v-6 in it soon should I wait untill I change the motor because of the weight difference between a 4 and 6 cylinder? or are the coils going to handle the extra weight without any sag? Also can anyone reccomend a good leveling coil they have had good luck with?

I wouldn't worry about the engine. If you lose a little bit of height after the swap, a couple washers under the lower spring seats will bring it back up.

As for coils, Skyjacker's stuff has always been pretty good as far as durability goes.

Check out the "lifting on a budget" section, lots of good stuff.
