suspension problems

[shyster666]

i lifted my 2002 ranger with 3 inch lift spindles and 2 inch lift springs now when i go over heavy bumps it feels like my front is clanking or hitting frame i tried to re do the springs but they are fine does anyone think it is the control arms

your proably have no down travel left from the springs. your upper arm is proably hitting the stops, or your ball joint angles are maxing out., you may need limts straps...


jack up your truck, so the suspention hangs free and look to see if the upper arm is hiting on something(bump stop frame) or if your ball joints are going to in bind.

the only A arm truck I have looked/worked on have been toy's, but the longer springs in a ranger is the same princble as twistingt he T bars to much on a toy or 4wd ranger.

sorry about the spelling mbut my fingers are hauling asssss......need to get back out on my own junk pile....
