Hey everyone. I'm a little new here. I'm looking to get a ranger anywhere from a 93 to 97 ranger. I want to put 33x10.5 on it but i know they will rub if i don't lift it. I know the newer rangers can fit 33x10.5 with a t bar crank. would i be able to fit them with a 2" coil spacer or any other kind of leveling kit. also if anyone has pictures of this kind of set up post em on here. I love to see what you guys drive.
 
i dont know about the whole washer thing though. i think i would rather go with the spacers on ebay
 
That's fine, either way will work. I opted for washers because they are steel rather than poly-urethane or aluminum.

I could always go with the aluminum spacers and stud extenders for strength but i'm not really planning on off roading that much so i dont know how strong i need them. but sweet ride railman. Is that just with the washers in the front, nothing in the back right? do you get any rubbing in the front?

also would i need longer shocks with the spacers
 
Ravo, you'll be fine with factory shocks.

Nice pics Railman, that convinces me doing washers is the right thing for me to do. Did it do any damage to your truck? It looks like they split pretty bad.
 
Stay away from the poly spacers. Mine came out in pieces like shown above. Washers or aluminum spacers only...

yeah, they split pretty bad....but didn't do any damage...

i just noticed my truck had alot more forward "rake" after a wheeling trip....got to inspecting and found the spacers all split up....this after haveing them less than 6 months....

well, live and learn i guess:D

Crap I just installed poly spacers..... I hope mine dont kerplode that soon. Luckily things seem to last longer in Southern Oregon.
