UK ranger vs usa torsion bar and wishbone differances

[timmieg88]

hi, i am from the uk, i brought a lift kit from the usa for my ford ranger 2009 4x4 , the rear block fits fine but it appears the front torsion keys provided wont fit, the usa version seems to use a hex shape to engage the key, where as the uk model uses a spline fitment into the key, also i have noticed the uk model uses a much thicker and offset upper wishbone comapred to the usa version that is symetrical and a thinner casting, can the usa components be interchangeable? i was thinking of doing a coil over conversion or getting a superlift kit but with the wishbone appearing to be differant im unsure if it will fit?

thanks tim

The UK 2009 Ranger is a completely different truck from the US 2009 Ranger. I doubt if very many parts cross over between the two.

Yea they don't share much more than the name... totally different vehicle.
