so about six months ago i was able to find an RCD 5.5 inch Lift for the 4wd rangers. I finnaly have the time and money to get to put it in, but i dont know what i should do about the drive shafts, front and back. I know that with the superlift 4 inch all you have to do is get a different front, what about six inches though. Should i get both extended or will the rear still be fine?

you'll probably want to go to a 1-piece in the rear if you don't have one already

but yeah, get a one piece.. see how that works out.. and see if it needs longer or not? i don't think it should... but it might.
