I have a 2wd Ranger that I am wanting to widen the front track width on. I am running a set of 04 Explorer 17" wheels on it, and the back spacing isn't right. I need to widen the track about 1 1/2 to 2 inches on each side. I know, just get different wheels with the right spacing. I love the wheels, so if I can make them work, it would be great. I am going to be getting a new rear end, which is about 4 to 5 inches wider than my 7.5, so the rear will be just about right. Would a 2" spacer in the front be a bad idea? I thought about a set of the tubular beams with an extension welded in outside of the radius arm mounts? Any ideas?
