I've only seen 3's but there's always the sloppy custom way and cut your own. And completely unbiased I love your truck.

Don't the 08 (or was it 07) Sports have 1.5" blocks in the rear already? If that is correct you could find a set from an older Sport or Edge or 4x4 XLT that are 2.5". The torsion keys will swap to give you an extra inch or so as well.

That sounds right in my head. I am not up to date on the newer Rangers as much.

I do not know anything about the 2011 trucks but since you guys have torsion bars I am willing to bet you have 1.5" blocks back there.

I would not want to put blocks on top of blocks. Do a little digging about lift shackles or an add a leaf to get your rear a little higher. Belltech 6400's if I remember right.

The 02 Ranger i used to have had a 3" lift on it when i bought it, and they just added a 3" block to the suspension and got longer U bolts. It was below the stock block just like the above post. Seemed to work just fine.

Don't get blocks. Either an AAL or shackle
