I have a 1994 Ranger XL 2WD. I am not sure on how I want to do it yet so i thought I would hear what you guys have to say. I was thinking about just flipping the axle and cutting the front springs but its kinda iffy. I'll take any input. Thanks.

I wouldnt flip anything or cut anything, itll make your truck ride ruff. you probbley have seen hondas done that way they bounce all over the place an scrape the ground badly, unless u airbag the truck thall be cool an itll sit low..but not when driving i think,

Flipping the center bolt on the leaves and putting an Explorer axle in it would lower the rear, and probably work well.
DON'T cut springs. Its not a good idea. It makes the springs, not springs. It distempers the metal around the cut and makes them brittle.
