many ways to lift it, matters how high you want it?

1-3 in body lifts
lift spindles for the front
Taller Springs for front
Add a leaf in the rear
lift blocks for the rear

many different ways to go and i only listed a few

good luck and post pictures after you are done, would love to see the finished project!!!

As stated above there are several ways. A good safe way and not too expensive either, would be to just use taller coil springs and a rear add-a-leaf. I bought all of this on Ebay years ago when I lifted my 99 2wd Ranger. Never had any problems. Don't forget the front end alignment right away as well.

As far as I know there are no 4wd brackets that will fit on a 2wd 2001 Ranger. I would use lift spindles in the front and 4wd lift blocks in the rear.
