So ive seen threads about the washer coil spacer and have been very excited to do it, not remembering that the rangers that i have seen this done to were older rangers than my 98. The older ranger springs seem to come to a tighter coil at the bottoms while mine seem to stay the same width all the way down. Now i have a 98 ford ranger xlt 4.0 and i was wondering if the steel washers is still a possibility or if its a lost cause?
