holy old thread man,


you could do a t/s lift (torsion shackle) crank the torsion bars 8 turns and put a set of lift shackles on the rear

Arise, old thread

Seeing as your talking about the old Rancho system that I just had fitted, I'll add my 2 penneth.
First off Rancho discontinued making this kit back in 2007
I bought mine back at the beginning of this year from a guy called Phoenixmoonlighter on e-bay. Apparently he had the last 3 kits.
I bought the last but one. If you can still find a kit, I'd get it as it gives a really nice ride.
It does fit the AWD with no extra mods so no idea why Rancho said it don't fit.

I did buy a set of reindexed torsion bar keys do add extra height to my Rancho kit but they won't go on.

The rancho kit costs much more and there's the added expense of requiring new rims (or at least spacers) to clear the ball joints so..... you takes your choice

o dont waste money on the torsion keys, just crank the t-bar bolts 8 turns for 2 inches and call it a day, cheaper and works just fine

As of right now I have the 2in body lift, but would love another 3 inches.


I can't resist... I think we all could use another 3 inches....lol
