Have 88' Ranger that I recently replaced tie rods/ suspension on. I decided to drop the front end and bought lowering springs and shocks as described on this site here: http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/suspension_drop.shtml
The write-up states that I should be ok with the 2" drop with out having to buy drop beams. The drop overall looks great (pics soon) however when took for alignment it was rejected for being to low and drop beams were said to be required. If Im happy with the the 2" the springs/shocks gave me, is buying drop beams my only way to correct the alignment/camber issue?
Also, I have gabriel hijackers in the back, air adjustable. I would like to keep this way due to hauling on occasion. If I correct the front alignment issue by scraping together the $400+ for drop beams, should I be ok without having to drop the back for anything? I can go down to 25psi on the adjustable shocks which is a decent stance to my liking since the rear rims are 1 inch larger.
