    I have body lift and 5 inch ranger lift on mine with the 35s. I ran 32s when i was just body lift and torsion crank. Scrubbed at full lock. No spacers and wheels had -12 offset

    5 inch ranger lift.

    Nah i keep my phone well away from my trucl when working on it. Have a bad habit of throwing stuff. Install was pretty straight forward though. Had to modify front diffs rear mount. Everything else for the front is pretty much direct fit.

    Also your tow hooks will have to be removed but you can use chevy blazer/s10 tow hooks. Its what i use. Fit perfect.

    Torch add-a-leaf kit and 3" body lift concerns on 20 year old Sport Trac

    I have the body lift on my 04. The radiator gets lowered not raised. Everything lines back up pretty easy as long as you take your time. Also make sure you follow the instructions closely as several wires have to be loosened. The ac hose does need to be secured away from belt. I drilled 2 small...

    5 inch ranger lift.

    Finally got around to installing my Rough Country Ranger lift. Happy with end results. Few little kinks i need to work out but no complaints so far. 8"-9" total lift with body lift and slight torsion crank. Running 35s with no rubbing at full lock

    Progress so far.

    I've considered that. My hood is drilled with pins so I've also considered removing the latch and using the pins only.

    Yeah thats actually where I bought mine from. If I had to do again though I probably wouldn't have bought it. Latch and hinge areas on the hood always worry me. If I am in a rush and let the hood open on its own I always hear the fiberglass stress cracking and that crap worries me..

    Remote Start Issues.

    So I installed a remote stop on my 04 the other day. Got it working with no real issues but I can't seem to find a certain wire. Truck locks/unlocks and starts like its supposed to. However pressing the brake pedal doesn't deactivate the remote start like its supposed to. Also wasn't able to...

    Fog light and bright light issues...

    I've honestly stripped the whole harness in that area and can't find anything. Changed out all the bulbs last night with new ones and no change. I've read about people jumping the ground leg on the relay to have fogs and brights at the same time but I don't see where that's been done on this...
