Skyjacker Drop Bracket Issue

[wrangler8]

I am in middle of installing skyjacker class II 6'' lift on 93 ford ranger 4x4.

Confused right now becuase the instructions for Drop Bracket (Driver I Beam) say that there should be three holes in the crossmeber that are not there.....How can I drill the holes at a wonky angle?! or do I need to at all. it is already supported by the 4 original bolts.

Could you post a picture of the bracket and where it goes, I done the BDS 4in on my buddy's '94, and I don't recall having any issues

the forward support holes on the outside of the passenger rail?


dont think those are on the gen 3 and late gen 2, the earlier trucks had holes for the factory lift

Here is pic:

mine is a 93 so is it gen 2?

If there are no holes then do I need to drill them or can I install without.

There is one hole that was already there (furthest left if your looking from the front) I was thinking of just using that one and the other 4

Those 3 extra bolts are needed due to the added leverage the longer bracket creates.

At the very least, drill out and put a bolt in for the very far-right hole (looking from front) if you're having trouble with it.
