ya i just read that right after i posted this....sorry ... idunno if i want to do a 4/5 drop....3/4 maybe but it sounds like a 2/3 would be the best for me.....my main problem and what i REALLY need help with is were can i get any of this stuff...i can't seem to find any good sites for lowering kits

 

John will be around to help I am sure. If not then send him a PM, as in the other post its John Moorehead for his screen name.

 

I am going out on a limb and say you dont have a ranger edge right? i dont know... also please make a Signature with your trucks specs and what not so we can answer questions better later on thanks

any questions?
also, depending if you have a heavy v6 or a lighter 4cyl, or if its extended cab, or regular, the actual drop may vary

 

DJM 4/5 is the best way to go with some good 4/5 shocks.

I run 245/45r17 on bullit wheels. I think its the perfect fit. No rubbing on the inside or on the fender. You will need to run a spacer for those wheels.

As for the wheels/tires you have now, it will rub the fender. I put my spare on to look one time and it was close.

 

My 02 is also bagged


but i say go with the 4/5 i'v seen them and they look real nice with a nice set of wheels

 

the main thing i've noticed is that the top of the truck is tall (the window) and all the slammed rangers i've seen look very....odd....like they need chopped, so i want to make sure i don't go too low to make it look....uneven....i hope u know what i mean...

Gabriel, for a 5/5 drop yours doesn't look bad...do u have any other pics?
