lifting the stock front end

[yodaman1151]

well i've got a 3 in body lift but i want a lil more. i've seen these spring spacers accompanied with blocks in the rear that could give me 2 - 3 in all around.. bad idea?

I had the 2 inch spring spacers with explorer coils in the front and explorer leafs in the rear and got obout 3inches of lift I don't really like blocks but they do work I have a set of 4 inch blocks that I am selling for 40dollars

i heard of a kid at my old high school that did his blocks wrong in his ram 2500 and it fell off the axel.. idiot.. but thats all that worrys me of blocks. but ok tell me the difference in explorer stuff. does it just bolt in? cuz thats how it sounds to me. can i just take all the rnning gear (axels, springs) off an exploder and bolt it to my b2?

[onewyr]

yes it is a direct bolt up

on my ranger i put f-150 coils with explorer springs in the rear gave me about a 4-5" lift and i can fit 33's without any problems

Last winter I swapped in a Dana 35 and an 8.8 from a 91 ranger and everything bolted right in. The only change I had make was to have the front drive line shorted. I used the stock springs from the ranger in the front and left the b2 springs in the rear and there was no lift, but the new running gear has worked really well so far. I

i thought the ranger stuff was narrower? but that doesnt make sense it would be cuz they are the same thing right?

[stupidcow79]

here is a pick of the f-150 coils on the ranger

[yodaman1151]

is that silver screw thing a spring spacer? that add lift?

[stupidcow79]
