I have a 4 inch rough country super lift on my 2004 FX4 Ranger and when I bought the truck it had the lift and coilover conversion brackets from NorthPeak4x4 installed already. I’ve been having some trouble with my suspension lately and have snapped now 2 fox shocks and realize that this is not...

Hello everyone, I'm refreshing the suspension on my 2003 FX4, and while the shocks are totally gone (replacing with Bilstein 4600s), I am unsure about the leaf springs. These look a little flat to me, but the truck does have a tall fiberglass bed cap on and I have hauled a few heavy loads before...

I’ve got a 2001 XLT Ext Cab and the normal ride height just isn’t what I want. I wanna do either a 2/3, 3/5 or a 4/5. I honestly have no experience with suspension modifications so I am just looking for a some guidance past the basic guides on the site. I’ve heard I might need new camber bolts...

Thank you in advance for your help! 2010 Ford Ranger 2WD (2.3L) Previous owner was in moderate front end collision on driver's side (per carfax). When I purchased the vehicle (in 2021 at 30k miles) it had a slight shake in the steering wheel, especially between 60-75mph. I ignored this for...

I wanted a truck camper for my 2wd 09 ranger. Few campers are available for small trucks, and those that exist are extremely expensive. I decided to create my own using full size truck caps. The full budget of the project was $150. I drew the design, photoshopped the design, then acquired the...

Hello! I will be doing a junkyard run soon, and one of the main things on my list are thicker swaybars. I have plans for autocross so I need to eliminate a lot of body roll. My truck originally had no rear bar, but I pulled a rear swaybar off a B3000 and it fit without issues. The B3000 rear bar...

MY 1996 XLT shakes excessively on bumpy gravel roads when hitting bumps and holes. It almost feels as if my sedan is a smoother ride. Could my shocks be completely blown ? The worst shaking seems to be from the back and those shocks do seem to be the original ones from 1996. The front shocks...

My 2004 2wd Edge no longer sits up level (or close to level) like a 4x4 as it should. I started to notice this after the engine was replaced a few years ago. It has gradually sagged lower. Looking at it from the side, it looks higher in the back and lower in the front. It used to sit level. I...

Hello, I am currently restoring my Bronco II '88. I'm trying to take the front axle and diff apart due to the fact that 4wd doesn't work and movement of steering causes strange noises. When I tried to take it apart I couldn't get past the removal of the spindle, it seems to be stuck. Do you have...

Hey guys, I've got a 98 4x4 with ~160k and it's having some major front-end issues. Over every bump it squeaks like a mofo, the front wheels are considerably cambered, and when braking there is a knocking noise and it feels like the wheels are wobbling. I'm gonna blame it on the 32x11.50r15s and...

My 2002 ranger xlt 2wd is making creaking noises from under the wheel well when I turn the wheel, go over bumps, or shake / bounce the vehicle with my hands. When i say "when i turn the wheel" i dont mean its a power stearing issue, its a creaking noise like theres a suspension part going bad...

I just posted about upgrading the engine in my 2wd 1992 Ranger, 2.3l to make it faster. (here's the thread) But along with making it faster, I want to make the truck a little stiffer to handle corners better, and with less body roll. I've looked into a 4 link rear coilover conversion kit, and...
