ok i seen an ad forsale.... here it is
4 inch Trailmaster lift kit for 2wd Ford Ranger with Twin I-Beam front end-was purchased for 1986 truck but never installed. Believe it will fit newer trucks but not sure what years. Includes new I-Beams, Lift blocks for rear, bump stops, pitman arm, and hardware/instructions.


. now my question is are these just like the opposite of drop beams. it just drops the spindle down with the location of the balljoints so you get lift with stock springs? ive seen lifted beams that are raised at the piviots that use bigger springs for lift. but look at the spindle end of these beams. wierd. maybe id get them and get rid of my body lift. these must be old school. also the ad says there for an 86, so will they work on 89-92 trucks with out swaping spindles etc.

Im not sure if trail master made those.....I know a company back in about 03 made a "bent beam" kit that came with new beams. Alot like the old old fabtech 1.5 over beams. I want to say chassis tech, but I dont think thats right ethier.

I never seen any in person always in adds.They look like they are plate construction.


It they are made for a 88 prior ranger they will have diffrent ball joint ends than the 89 newer.

do the balljoints press in to the beams..(88 and older stye) or do the ball joints press in to the spindles 89 and later style.


get us soem better pics of the beams, and we can tell you its they were "bent" or if the ends were made lower for lift.
