I have a 2002 Ford Edge (so torsion bars) and was looking at lift kits and that lead into the coil spring conversion which lead into full prerunner builds. Then realizing the budget needed, so back to looking at spindle lifts. You guys know how it goes.
Anyways... had a couple quick questions more of as a curiosity thing. Is there a frame difference between the coil spring rangers versus the torsion bar rangers? Reason I ask is I was wondering if you would be able to use the coil spring lower control arm and gusset the shock mount on the torsion bar ranger to do a "OEM-ish" conversion. Or is the frame completely different with the shock mount (on torsion bar ranger) in a different location that the coilover mount? Basically would it be possible to convert from torision bar to coil over by using a coilover lower control arm and welding gussets to reinforce the shock mount.
