Is it possible to find a 3"-4" lift kit for a 2010 4x4?
I have been searching for a lift kit and have only come across one for the 2010 4x4, which is $1500 U.S.
The other option I found was torsion bar key way and add a leaf kit with blocks.
I'm in Canada and wondering if anyone has any other solutions to get 3-4 inches of lift on my ranger.
Thanks!

You are so smooth with the ladies DJ.
What he is saying in all of his two words is a body lift can get you what you are after. And a body lift is cheaper anyway!

My boyfriend is a mechanic and for what I plan on doing suspension upgrades are what are needed over a body lift. I'll be going off roading with it, not just needing room for bigger tires

People offroad successfully with a bodylift.

I don't want a body lift.
I'd like some combination, even if parts have to be purchased seperately, that will give me the height clearance and flexibility that I want. Figured there might be some people on here who had modified their rangers in that way so I could get some advice on what they used that worked (or didn't work)

super lift, used rcd lift or a solid axle swap
The biggest draw back to the super lift is it still uses the torsion bars. So you don't really gain a whole lot of ground clearance because those still hang down

Body lift, superlift or sas are your only options.
Superlift uses drop brackets in the front end. You will end up having the same ground clearance as a bodylift fyi.
Goodluck

Other than a completely custom straight axle suspension which is not cheap or easy, there are no pieced together options.
Superlift is your answer if you don't want a body lift.

Nope.
Time for one of my favorite "copy & paste" answers:
Since you are 4WD - you only have the following general options when it comes to lifting your truck:
- 1"-2" Torsion Bar Crank = Cost is only an alignment.
- 2" Leveling Kit (AKA - Torsion Keys) = Waste of money, same as a torsion bar crank - see option #1 above.
- 3" Body Lift (Performance Accessories or Summit Brand) = +/- $200 + Install
- 4" Superlift = +/- $2,000 + Install
- Custom SAS = "Let your imagination take control of your wallet"
Pick your poison.
Rear is the simple part....shackles, AAL or new leaf springs are the "popular" choices.

How does this look?
Since you are 4WD - you only have the following general options when it comes to lifting your truck:
- 1"-2" Torsion Bar Crank = Cost is only an alignment.
- Pre-Key Mod (If 2008+ Ranger) = Gets you to the height of a pre-08 stock 4WD Ranger. Then you can perform option #1 from there.
- 2" Leveling Kit (AKA - Torsion Keys) = Waste of money, same as a torsion bar crank - see option #1 above.
- 3" Body Lift (Performance Accessories or Summit Brand) = +/- $200 + Install
- 4" Superlift = +/- $2,000 + Install
- Custom SAS = "Let your imagination take control of your wallet"
