I keep finding conflicting information
I bought a 1990 Ranger 2.9L 4x4. It came with 245x45x20 tires on it. I'm wanting to turn the truck into a mild mud toy while still being able to haul stuff on the streets. Its not a DD, but I don't want it too crazy.
My vision for the truck includes a mild lift and some 31" all terrains or mud tires. I would like to avoid trimming or cutting the fenders. while having minimal to no rubbing
Anyways, I was thinking skyjackers 2" lift coils and explorer leafs or belltech shackles would be enough to clear 31s. However I have not been able to find a solid answer on this and their website does not say either. Can anyone confirm if 31s will fit on a 90 4x4 with a 2" lift and no fender trimming?
Id be kinda upset if I spent all the time and money doing this 2" lift only to find out 31s still don't fit.
or would it be better to just go with the dufftuff stage one 3" lift kit which the website states will clear 31s with no fender trimming. (Im not particularly a fan of replacing all the brackets in this kit for such a mild lift)
TLDR: 2" skyjacker coils enough to clear 31s on 90 4x4, or just go with dufftuff 3" kit to be safe?
