i used f150 springs as well i bought them from autozone there Gabriels for an 88 F150 which the guy behind the counter said were the same part number for the 4wd ranger the shocks are the right length but i had to push the rubber peices out of the shocks and get new oned because the ones that came with the shocks wouldn't fit onto the shock bolts.I'm in the middle of doing this swap and was wondering about what people have done as far as the shocks for it. I know in the read up he says he used F-150 with a 2 inch lift anyone used some different?
There was no way I could of used a stock F-150 shock with mine. I measured the one of my dad's 89 and they were a little more than an inch short.i used f150 springs as well i bought them from autozone there Gabriels for an 88 F150 which the guy behind the counter said were the same part number for the 4wd ranger the shocks are the right length but i had to push the rubber peices out of the shocks and get new oned because the ones that came with the shocks wouldn't fit onto the shock bolts.
