Lowering 83 Ranger??

[83_rangerdave]

Either im very stupid today but anyways I wanna lower truck in rear 2" how do you do the spring hanger flip?? from pics why does the hanger gotta be unbolted?? Only thing looks flipped is the shackle, ive never lowered a truck before.. Allso the trs tech page it looks like the hanger is from other side do you take hangers from opposite side?? and rebolt?? Wheres the dummy instructions lol

All you've got to do is grind off the rivets on the outside after removing the shackle of course. Then you pound the rivets out through the frame, and flip the hanger upside down. No need to switch sides or anything. But the end that was originally in the hanger must stay there... it's quite obvious how it goes together. Hope this makes a little bit of sense. The tech library will show you all hardware you need.

Sorry that write up is wrong. Go outside and look at the shackles on your truck. Then compare what you see to the write up.
