Who produces this?

I would like to know as well... looks more like a lift kit to me...

Now for the rear you can take about an inch out of the height with these leaf spring to chassis brackets

Just from my observations, I didn’t think shackles would do the trick.
IF this works it may be all that’s needed for a more level look. I personally do not want to drop the front.
Coil over rear setup may be pretty pricey. Replacement rear leafs seems like a better option.

Jury’s still out for me and I’m standing in Eng.Phil’s corner.

The frame bracket is wider than the spring width, therefore it has a stepped hanger/shackle. Those won't work

Not to mention it will put the pinion angle out of alignment

Not sure if those are Ranger specific to be honest. They are advertised as a lowering solution for the pick up market here Chevrolet Ford Toyota etc along with some other pictures but yu get the general idea .
From what I can gather all the Rangers in US market are axle under spring setup.
Not sure if flipping the axle up on top of the spring will be the answer or not?

The front adjustable slip over kit is Ford Ranger specific.
I'll update with some pics once I install it.

Flipping the axle usually gets you more like a 5-6 inch drop, I was thinking about a spring flip, to turn the spring so that the arch is up rather than down and still using the spring stack below the spring and cutting down the bump stop, Seems like you might be able to get 2" drop.

Ummm....no.

Yes, the Ranger was delivered to Belltech in Clovis California on Monday 10/14/19. They said they would give me an update in a couple weeks

Any chance Belltech will have any ready before the SEMA show in Las Vegas?

 

[Edwin]

Pretty sure they will not have it ready by SEMA

Ford Motor Company and father/son designers Neil and Collin Tjin are no strangers to collaborating on projects. For example, the 2017 SEMA Show featured an F-150 Tjin Edition concept from the duo, which was a cream-colored and lowered street sweeper of a full-size pickup with rose gold wheels. Then for the 2018 SEMA Show, the designers built the Ford Mustang EcoBoost Tjin Edition, which was deep purple, flared out, stanced, lowered, and once again with rose gold wheels. Also in the mix from Tjin over the years is a Ford Edge, a Focus ST, and a Fiesta ST. Now for the 2019 SEMA Show, the designers have revealed a rendering of the 2019 Ford Ranger Tjin Edition with another wide and low street-ready stance that they’ve become known for.

Going the opposite direction of the otherwise overland-ready lineup of Ford Ranger pickups that are being readied for the show, the 2019 Ranger Tjin Edition is slammed to the ground via an air suspension, lowered 8 inches in the front and 9 inches in the rear. From there, JR’s Wheels and Tires fitted Falken tires on custom 20-inch Rotiform LHR-M three-piece wheels, with a set of Baer six-piston calipers and 14-inch rotors just behind them.

Under the hood, the 2.3-liter EcoBoost is upgraded with a Roush Performance intake, as well as a Ford Performance cat-back exhaust and differential cover. There’s also a yellow-top Optima battery and RPG front-mounted intercooler.

Other styling cues come from Vaughn Gittin Jr’s RTR performance shop. This includes RTR fender flares, and an RTR grille with triangle LED lights. The paint is a one-off BASF yellow applied by L&R Auto Body, a one-off wood bed floor in black with stainless steel hardware, retractable bed cover from Retrax, PowerTank CO2 system, Rigid fog lights and Lumens bed lights. The cockpit features four Recaro Sportster CS seats that recline, plus Schroth harnesses.

We hope to get a closer look at this pickup truck soon, during the 2019 SEMA Show happening the first week of November in Las Vegas, Nevada.
