Proformance Accessories 883 3'' Body Lift

[Dep. Ranger]

Hey Guys,
I am thinking of installing a 3'' body lift on my 99 ranger instead of replacing the coils in the front. The body lift is quite a bit less than the coils. I am just wondering if anyone has installed a 3'' body lift on their ranger. What size tire were you able to fit on your ranger? Also how hard was the install? Can a regular joe install it? And lastly, does anyone have a website or even detailed instructions on how to install this type of lift?
Thanks so much guys.

theres a detailed instruction on this site under tech library. here
their probably a bit easier, but look tackier and dont provide any improvements

thanks man. i am only going to install it for looks. this truck is my daily driver, so it prob. wont see too much mud. do you have any idea what size tire i could squeeze on the truck? i was hoping 33''s.

2wd or 4wd i put a 3" on mine and my friends he clears 33's('97 ranger 4x4)
i havent put any on yet

2WD. did your friend use a torsion bar crank on his 4x4?

hey twinky, where in tampa are you? im in st pete. but 4x4s can almost clear 33s stock, i think youd be fine with 33s and a 3" bl.

throw some pics up when you get it finished. im contemplating a body lift or 2" lift coils in the front 1" block in the rear. 33's may work but may rub depending on the tire width and backspacing of the wheel. 31x12.50 would look sweet not to tall but nice and wide IMO

good luck
