I'm looking to get about 2" of lift up front by replacing the stock springs. Are there any known cars, trucks, SUV's, or vans that will swap in? If not, ill just buy them, but it would be hella cheaper to rip them out of a junker.

I was planning on doing that, but I wanted to see if I could get an idea before I pulled it apart. And im pretty sure the front springs are already sagging pretty bad, so new lift springs would have a bigger effect.

Another question, can I take leaf springs from other rangers and stick them in the back? Stack em to lift it?

You can do that, and you can also add shackles for even more rear lift.
And torsion crank if you already haven't done so.

Yeah... i just think that shackles might look kinda stupid. ill see if I can find a pic of a ranger with shackles. Also im kinda skeptical about Cranking the T bar... heard it leads to premature front end wear...
