I've been driving my truck for about a year now and loving it but not enjoying my ride height. Although I'm not looking to lift like 4 in. yet I am bummed that my 08 sport 4x4 sits like an inch and a half lower than say an 05 off road both with stock parts. Is it possible to switch out suspension parts from an older model to get an increased stock height in mine?

I think you need to change the rear blocks to per 07 and then either crank the torsion bars or do the pre key (use torsion keys from a 7 or earlier) mod which basically adjusts the front higher by cranking the torsion bars.

I'm pretty sure rangers 08+ sit an inch lower than earlier models. Don't know why. Try to find some pre 08 fx4 level II rear blocks. And get 31's if you don't already have them.

Pre 07 t-bar keys are definitely different.

You need pre 08 keys and pre 08 blocks.
