Im planning on putting in leveling springs on my 94 ranger and i want to know if it would help suspension travel even without a lift if i put in the skyjacker extended radius arms, or would this just give me major problems without the 4 inch drop brackets?
 
im not sure if it would cause problems but it wouldnt help much. there are other things like shocks and springs that end up limiting your travel before the stock radius arms do. (mostly shocks)
 
Without some lift (more than 2"), you won't have enough travel in your suspension to need ext RAs (that and you'll lose some clearance behind there as well due to the brackets).
 
the only time you want to use radias arms is on a lift that is 4" or bigger...
 
basically using longer radius is use when achieving longer travel so in your case with stock springs and susp. is basically a waste of time and money
 
thanks for the replys guys basically im trying to lift on the cheap and get a lil more susp travel. so im gona start with better shocks and sj leveling springs hopefully to move on to somthing with more flex later.
