I have a friend with a 2wd 98 single cab short-bed asking me how to get 2 inches of lift in the front. After researching I have learned that it is more complicated than on my 96. That being said I ave him stock lift blocks from the rear-end of a 99 4x4 and I was wondering if I could just use the front spindles off of that 99 4x4 ranger on his 98 2wd to get that extra lift without dropping a bunch of cash for one of these kits I see ranging from $200-400.
The question:
The donor truck again was lifted stock from what I can tell and is sitting in the junkyard and it would be much cheaper if I could grab the front suspension components necessary for the front ~2 inch lift (doesn't matter the actual amount, he is good with stock lift). Would I need to grab the radius arms and all because the 4wd stuff is totally different or would any combination of parts work with this application in mind?
Any insight is much appreciated.
