Lowered and SAS?

[koda6966]

Has this been done? If so, how were the results?

Researching for a future project.

I dont believe it would be possible without completely removing the engine crossmember. Even then I doubt you could get it much if any lower than stock. Even if you could your uptravel would be nearly non-existent. The diff has to go somewhere. May I ask what kind of project this might be?

get 4 hub motors



skid steer rules

I think about the best you could do is what Patov8 has done with his ranger. He is sitting about the same height I am, with 3-4 inch larger tires and a ton more travel. Plus it is one of the cleanest builds I have ever seen.

 

[bobbywalter]

tire size would be the base factor.

if the plan is to run it on the street, not a lot of uptravel is needed (2" or so max).

but a solid axles handles like ass on the street...so i hope thats not the plan.

SAS is no longer part of the project.

Thank you for the information.

I'll post up a thread once I get all the details sorted out. Mostly to check my plans against others knowledge and past/current experiences.

Ahh I see.

Well in response to RumpRanger. I do not own a four wheel drive ranger. I did not say I owned a four wheel drive ranger. I do not plan on having a four wheel drive ranger for this project, sam I am.

There are Solid Axel 2wd trucks out there by the way. Not lowered, but they're there. My dad's old truck is a perfect example, but I don't plan on putting a Full Size Dodge axle in there..

So you're gonna swap in a single I-beam?
