I have a 1999 ford ranger with a 4" suspension lift and a 3" body lift. It is sitting on 33" toyo open countrys.

lately i have been getting tired of leaning so much whenever i take turns. Also im getting a bunch of shit from my buds because of it :bawling: . I figure if i take my 3" body lift off it will make it stop leaning so bad because it will lower the center of gravity. so the question is. will my tires still not rub without the 3" lift? or is there something else i can do to make my truck not want to roll whenever i take a turn?

Anti-roll bar anti-sway bar, also known as roll-bar or sway bar. Do you have any installed or were they removed when the lifts were put on? They can be installed with quick links for off-road use.

James duff makes a set of tack bars that help with body roll. I have them on my truck and they do help. I have a 99 4inch suspension lift and 3inch body lift.

Did you change your body mount bushings with the body lift? If your running a BL on worn bushings that could cause body roll as well.
