I am looking into buy a lift system for my 99 ford ranger but the only lift i can find for my truck is a superlift. I saw on another forum that skyjacker lift was better than superlift but i don't think skyjacker makes a lift for 99 rangers. Is there any other option?

well depending on how big you want your lift i know truxx's makes a 3 inch leveling kit with you can put on then add belltech 6400 shackles in the back then it will be 3 in front 4.5 in back so you will have rake and wont sag when you put a load in the back

Yup.

Nope.

Is there any other option?
Dixon Brothers, which costs about double what the Superlift goes for.
Or a body lift.

Bad idea. You still only have so much travel and re-indexed torsion keys (except on '08+) just lose you all the downtravel along with blowing CV joints.

How are you achieving 4.5" of lift with Beltechs exactly? They are only good for 1.5" of lift......Unless the truxx kit comes with a 3" block.
