Unless you actually know what you're doing then I wouldn't attempt a 4bt with long travel unless you want to shell out the $$$$ for someone else to do it and even then I would be weary about that....

Just do fiberglass! I have about 3.5" of lift from my long travel and f31s and a hangar flip in the rear. I have 35s and I have room for days.

Re: Prerunner Enthusiast's Thread

My guess is everyone does. My explorer axle I have now has the trac-lok l/s or whatever but my 9" going in has a spool

Re: Prerunner Enthusiast's Thread

Ocotillo is a lot more friendly to semi built prerunners. It also has a ton of trails to fly down. Glamis a little more congested and unless you are making serious power and have a set of paddles you...

If you know your tire size and can do basic math you can use an online gear ratio calculator to figure it out. Just keep in mind most of them assume a final drive ratio of 1 so you will need to...

Re: SAS or Long Travel suspension?

This could have been an actual helpful thread for people but if you want to change it to something that has absolutely nothing to with ford Rangers go ahead.

Not sure what you're trying to point...

Never been a fan of g50s. Way to stiff lol but anyways I would advise 4.88s if you're going to stick with the 33s but if you plan to go to 35s I would definitely go 5.13 or maybe even 5.29. As far as...

Doesn't say if it's the 3.0 or 4.0. If it's rust free and a 4.0 I'd pay around 4500 for it. 6500 is way too much. If it's the 3.0 I would pass.

I replaced the piece you are talking about recently as well. Long story short I crushed the old one. I couldn't find any new ones so I junkyarded one. There is a million of them at a junkyard

Yeah as stated before they should work together fine. You will need to notch the carrier pin pretty good for the 4.88 but any shop will be familiar with that process. I have 4.56 and LS with 35s and...

Re: Prerunner Enthusiast's Thread

I have 4.56 right now with 35s and the 4.0 and I'm pretty happy with it. I can squeal the tires in first and second. But my new axle has 5.29
