Who stocks lifts?

[dankhimself]

I'm in kind of a bind, i need to get the front of my truck higher for a trip out to PA next weekend, I want to go 6 inches, I want to order tomorrow, but i can only spare a little over a grand

Duff wont let me buy individual parts, summit and jegs wont ship until lext week sometime(i guess they order from their supplier then ship to me).

Anyone know who stocks lifts and parts for a 97 ranger 4x4? I know i can get away with getting a b-lift, but most places dont stock those either, Im pretty new to automotive suppliers, Im more seasoned in motorcycle and powersports equipment. I hope this is a stupid question and its super easy to get parts really fast haha.

Just go with James Duff.

I can't, he wont let me buy individual parts, and I need about 2300 shipped. I need to have some parts just for a camping trip next weekend. I was just asking if anyone knew who stocked parts for this truck.

What parts do you need???

I just need to get my truck in the air enough to clear my 33/12.5s by next friday, they almost clear now with spring spacers but i have to pull a trailer so i need to be able to turn my tires all the way no matter how the truck is positioned. Duff doesnt sell the 6 inch kit in pieces, only the whole kit. I only had about 1100 to get it done, which is more than enough to accomplish what i needed, but no one stocks this stuff, they all order it and ship it a week later. I ended up calling duff and getting a stage one kit for now, not really happy about it, but i guess i can convince them to sell me individual parts for the final 6 inch lift since i have (i think) a couple of the parts in that kit with the one i purchased.

with their 3 inch kit, i can hopefully clear the tires. I even called around for a body lift, no one has one in stock.

You could have bought a Rough Country lift and added a washer coil spacer. 6" of lift total for about $500.

^ What he said. Shipping to PA is 2 days. (My shops a dealer for them)

4" and 6" rough country drop brackets have been known to crack the front pumpkin FYI

Thanks for the responses! I never wanted to get the shitty lifts, just wondering if anyone stocked a bunch of stuff and didn't have to order it direct from them then ship to me. Im happy with my order from duff, but I just wish they had a 4" instead of the 3, or sold the 6 inch kit in stages like their other kit. No big deal, they shipped it same day Thursday and it'll be here Monday. So im all set! Ill get their radius arms and upper buckets later, as well as leaf packs. I just wanted to do it right from the start, nothing is better than duff from what I've seen elsewhere. Can't wait to open the box! Build thread coming soon.

Got the lift! Gonna take pics after its in since I don't want to get grease and junk on my 7d. But they will be good shots and hopefully my writeup will help others with any questioned they may have. Thanks again for the responses. You guys kick ass!!

Sent from my Stupid idiot phone.

You can put coil spacers under the 3 inch lit and get 5 inches of lift.

That's exactly what I did, but with that one steel lift washer they gave too, since my drivers side was lower than the right. They said that's just how it is over the phone, that's why they included the washer. The blocks I used were leftover hard rubber ones, so I put a piece of aluminum pipe inside of the spacer the same height of it so it clamped the spring to it but wouldn't crush the spacer when I torqued it down.

Let me tell you, the ride is AMAZING, their shocks are great, and the truck feels like a new machine. I did the camber and alignment in my driveway today too, can't wait to hit the woods. Next on the list is everything else they make that I don't have.
