2005 Edge Torsion Lift Recommendations

[hoosier1104]

I noticed after I loaded down my Ranger today with landscaping blocks, that my rear suspension could use some help. So why not do a suspension lift. I have a torsion bar setup for the front instead of coils. Which means I cannot do a traditional junkyard lift like the F150 coils and so on.

Does anyone have a good site for torsion bar lift? I really do not want to crank them down but if I have no choice then I will. It is a last resort though.

Thanks in advance.

Since your 2wd, you can throw on some spindles....3" or 3.5" lift spindles. Fabtech is a brand alot of folks run.

Then ontop of that you can crank the bars some.

+1 on spindles. And if you're loading the box with weight a lot, maybe an add-a-leaf for the rear if you're doing more hauling than wheeling. That combo would be way cheaper than a suspension lift.

The answer to that would be a little from column A, a little from column B and all of column C.

So you would recommend this setup....http://www.trsfabandoffroad.com/products/fabtech_ranger.htm

^Ton's of people run that setup. But don't think because you're a lifted 2wd, that you can go around jumping the thing....people have snapped those spindles that way.

I think you already know this, but scroll down on that page and you'll see a red edge... part # P/N FTS98300-7-kit

Jumping my truck is not a option let alone a consideration. I maybe ex military but I am not stupid by any means.

I wasnt calling you that...just sharing what some peoples experiences were.

Ok I meant that I know better than to jump something that does not have the suspension for it.
