Re: Lowered or Stock? Help

Tough to say, could have cut springs/broken springs. Maybe it has some lowering spring on it.

Re: Wheel bolt pattern size question

This is true...

Re: Getting a manual transmission back in after clutch change...

You are doing it right. It wont just slide in and mate up. You basically have to get it all lined up and get a nice even gap between the trans and the block. The gap is usually about .500" or so...

Re: Alternate rear shocks for SuperLifted '00 Ranger

Don't see why they wouldn't work. I actually probably have more lift then you since I have a stock 2.5 inch block, AAL and 6400s.
