Often doing things like lifting a truck will void at least part, if not all of the warranty.

Lift kits for the newer Rangers are pricey.... Expect to spend well over $1,500 just for the kit.

Stock out of the box, expect 16-18mpg around town and 20-22 highway. Lifting it may decrease those numbers somewhat. Re-gearing is likely to bring some economy back, but not all because you're gonna be pushing a taller truck and heavier tires.

IMHO, crank the torsion bars in the front, that will give you ~2" in the front. Roll some bigger rubber under it and be happy for awhile. That's what I'd do if I bought a new 4x4.

yes that was my next concern was the warrenty. honestly thats all i'm looking for is to crank on the torsion bars with some new key or somthing. thank you all greatly for your help

this is what i found but i wasn't sure if it was everything i needed. and even if i did use this kit would i need to have the truck realined?

Superlift is the best late-model lift for the money but it's still about $1500.

yeah, you always have to get ur truck realigned, no matter what the lift
