I recently purchased a 3" coil spacer and shackle lift for my 98 2wd ranger. I bought all new monroe shocks(stock replacements) and lined them up with my motorcraft shocks I took off. The new monroe shocks are about an inch shorter, and I am not sure if they will be long enough with the amount of lift. I found a pair of bilstein front shocks on ebay for rangers with 2-4" of lift for $285! I was wondering if anybody has tried f150 shocks before with any success? Are they any longer? I know the bottom mount is different, but I am not afraid to do some mods to make it fit. Has anybody else tried this before? Or any other shock ideas that wont cost me $285? FX4 level II maybe?
