Hello,
l recently sold a Jeep Wrangler for a sweet deal on a 94 4x4 Ranger. l was a Previous Ranger owner and sold it for the Jeep
and now picked up a new one. l have been looking into a few addons from my Jeep that l liked and trying to use integrate them for use on my Ranger. l have a few questions regarding the rear suspension on the Rangers
1) l have read about the Chevy shackle and using them for lift, my question is has anyone fabbed their own shackles and had success? The reason l ask is l would like to get rid of the rear blocks and replace it with an extended shackle and greasable bolts (discussed in question #2). If so could you post some pics, l would appreciate it
2) Does anyone run greasbale bolts and bushings out back to help smooth out the ride? This was an option in my Jeep that was one of the best add ons in my opinion. l was wondering if anyone has run these with any success or can give me themeasurements of the bolts for the hangers and shackles. l have a distributor, but need the bolt size to pick them up.
3) Other than the Chevy springs, what are other options out back? l am unable to measure my springs as l sit here, but was wondering if it is a possibility to run early Toyota leafs or Wrangler leafs on a Ranger? l couldnt find any writeups on the net or site, which leads me to beleive they are either different lengths than Ranger, or different width wise... any thoughts?
l appreciate the help guys. Have a good one
