im rubbin pritty bad on my control arm an dont wanna drop tire size what are my options? im thinkin wheel spacers but havein trouble finding them for a good price for the truck any advice would be awsome

A different offset rim (I don't remember if it's a greater offset sticks the wheel out further, or if it's a smaller offset...double check that) will stick the wheel out further. However, this is more costly than spacers, and you can run into troubles with the local law enforcement if they're sticking outside the fenders (depends on where you're from).

Uhh...a differently designed radius arm would work too...angled in slightly towards the center of the rig will prevent some rubbage. Cost will be a factor in this, or fab up your own.

Not off the top of my head, but I'll poke around and see what I can dig up for ya.

EDIT - Just go to google and type in "wheel spacers ford ranger" and a bunch of different companies will pop up. Here's one that I found right at the top:

You can also adjust the stops on the knuckle so it doesnt turn until it rubs...

if you use too big ofspacers youll probably run into rubbing issues on the fender behind the front tires when you go to turn, it did it to me and i had a six inch lift and 33s.
