Knowledge means nothing. It's the application of that knowledge that means everything.
It's one thing to know T-Bars are shit. It's another to do something about it and swap to coilovers.

Re: Morgan's 2004 ranger
Id do a coilover swap and UCA uppers if I wasnt going LT, but I do hate Tbars hahaha, I was just cruising on a dirt road the other day and you can feel every little thing, I have like maybe an inch of upward travel....

V6 and gt are the same. Cobra have the vented rotors only. Also different bracket

Re: Morgan's 2004 ranger
the inner tie rods fail after abuse, heim steering replaces that with a clevis and a heim that is much stronger and tighter. a heim on the outter end does the same thing.

Re: Morgan's 2004 ranger
a 31 spline shouldnt need any trimming. test fit first of course. mine didnt require much. just filled up the fluid and L/S additive, and with this cover it took a ton more fluid to fill her up. more space and more fluid!
