I bought this little ranger yesterday and want to raise/level the front with the rear 2-3 inches. It seems all I read on torsion twist/lift won't work on this one.

My truck just doesn't seem to have the required torsion adjustment bolt. So I found an airlift coil spring helper system for $85. Give me an opinion on this if you will and let me know if you think it is a good option.

just get some leveling coils, dont mess around with those crappy looking "air bags"

Air anything is just trouble waiting to happen on a vehicle. Better to get springs like posted above. In the long term, it will be less work and trouble prone.

Where to get springs? How big a job is it?

MMM. I guess I have some searching and reading to do but if anyone knows off the top of their head or have some threads saved it would be appreciated.

Thanks for the responses.

And will I need an alignment after the springs?

Thanks

yep, you will.
