It may work... I know some Torsion bars front ends can be lowered as well as raised, but I'm not sure about the Ranger set up.

Why doesn't he just fill up the wheel wells as they are? Maybe take out the stock block so it sits more level, then get some 18s or 20s....

I hope he has a lot of money; it will take a lot to lower the torsion bar setup.
