Hello,
I have several questions and I am hoping that this will help members in the future.
Ok, so I have a 96 Supercab, and I am wanting to do a 5/6 drop. The front is easy, djm beams along with Belltech springs.
Now to the rear. If I use the Explorer rear end while keeping the Ranger leaf springs, would that give me a 6 inch drop? I know that using the explorer springs would give it a 4, but I read somewhere that the ranger leafs would provide an extra 2. Any help?
Also to clarify, could I bolt on a 98 and newer 1 piece driveshaft as well?
