4 in Spindle Lift Questions

Hey guys, new here.

Looking to put a 4 in spindle lift on my 2006 ford ranger 2wd and i'm curious if there are any additional parts or issues I may run in. Extended brake lines, taller coils, shocks, etc.

Thank you,

Dylan

In my research, they should bolt right on and use your same shocks and springs, however, you'll have to grind off a small section of the lip on your lower control arm for these to work. Otherwise, you'll have them rubbing every time it droops and won't have full wheel travel.

It might be a good idea to change bushings and ball joints while it's coming apart. Your choice

*edit*

You can add lift springs to add another few inches of lift, but there's where you may need longer brake lines and/or ABS wiring, but it seems fine on my 2003 choices. The stock wheel bearings also work with these (thank goodness!).

Longer shocks with springs, too.
