I've got a 2wd ranger that I want to level the front end on.

Okay so I read the rangerstation page on the F150 Leveling seats. Sounded great but there are a few loop holes and questions I have that I hope someone could answer.

First of all I was browsing the internet just decided to type in f150 coil seats in google and I came across a thread in the explorerforum. The guy posted his build http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=187201 on his 4wd ranger somewhere around a 93 94 not sure. anyways what worried me is he said you might need longer bolts on the 2wd models is this true if so what grade what size bolt if anyone knows?

On the Rangerstation alot of talk about positive camber worries me? Will a shop be able to align my truck after using the f150 seats or should I just stay away from this venture? Is a 4wd shop best or will a tire shop with alignment service be suffice

Basically what would be the best way to level the front end of my 1996 2wd Ranger in regards to allowing it to be able to be aligned afterwards? There was more talk of alignment issues with these coil seats than with lft springs or plastic spacers, which is why I'm asking.


Lastly are taller shocksalways necessary when leveling the front end at this extent.

as far as replacing the bolts on a 2wd i am not sure about that. anytime you lift your camber will be off. i lifted 2'' in front and took it to be aligned at a tire shop. they were able to correct the camber by replacing the stock camber bushings. i dont really think you have to worry about being able to align it after the lift. depending on where you go though they may have to order the bushings which would take a day or so.
