I have either been completely wrong in believing that all Rangers with the independent front axle had adjustable torsion bars or I am completely blind or have absolutely no clue what I am looking for. I have put a 3" body lift in my '96 and would like to raise the front and level the truck. If I don't have adjustable t-bars how is this done? Does this require installing a coil from a larger truck? I have seen the twist in blocks but that looks a little dicey to me.

You have a Twin Traction Beam front axle with Coil Spring/Radius Arm Setup, your levling options basically are:

Either a Leveling Spacer:

or a Leveling Coil:

If you do either of these, you will need an alignment afterwards. Do not use those twist in spacers, theyre just dumb. And also, if youre going to be doing a leveling kit it wouldnt be a bad idea to get yourself a new set of Radius arm bushings. You shouldnt need to add a different pitman arm either.

you can use coil spacers, or lift coils.

I beat you to it!

yea, but you dont have a gen 3, so your answer may not have been correct

Thanks for the info. I'll look into both.
