2008 2wd sport with 33s
 
i have a v6 2008 2wd sport ranger with a 3 inch body lift on it, i wanna throw a 1.5 inch leveling kit on it, will it fit 33inch mud tires on it?

If you run a 10.50 you may need to trim just a bit.

Wait 08 sport has t bars right I remember having a talk about them in another thread if so why not just crank your bars and if your talking about torsion keys leveling kit dont bother with em.

Dont waste money on leveling kit. Just crank the torsion bars it is free

i heard if you crank the tbars you mess up something with the tires though? you guys all prefer cranking the tbars rather than getting a 1.5 levling kit?

If you have your alignment checked after cranking them your fine.

Ya the blocks from 2006 and smaller then the 05 and older ones.

The blocks that came with my junk yard axle were smaller and I didnt like it.

Ya the torsion bar keys from 2007 and up are smaller. That is why people do the "pre key mod"
