To lift a 2wd?
First, they are the ford performance foxs 2.0, so it is tuned to our Rangers and not the standard fox 2.0 that works for most vehicles. Second, it’s to level the front of the truck with the rear. There is a lot of stock rake on our Rangers.

Stage 3 Motorsports confirmed the fitment. I was a little skeptical at first too, but Galpin Autosports did the install and went in with no issues. So it is confirmed also with personal experience.

Best situation for a RWD truck is to lower the rear end, instead of raising the front end, but that's just my $.02 :p

Well today is my Blend date! Lets hope its another 3-4 weeks and I will have my ranger!
What's a Blend date? It only took Ford 2.5 months to build my truck. It actually was delivered to the dealership 2 weeks early!

Blend date is when the the 2 parts of the truck get combined into 1.

Well I have a big update. Finally the truck is at home. @Zach@granger crew did a great job. Highly recommend Granger motors.

2000 miles later the ranger was flawless. Average 23.7 mpg with 2WD and the Offroad Hancock's in the LT upgrade. So not bad at all.

Here is a picture in my driveway getting a bath. It was pretty dirty from the journey home.

So far just installed the OEM tremor steps and my little 2 inch stubby antenna.

Pacing myself. Plenty of mods still to add and I am towing the race car for the first time this coming Friday and I have never towed before. 3 hours each way ?
