Welcome.

Do you have a photobucket account? If so upload your pictures there and copy&paste the IMG code.

And be prepared to answer 101 questions about what kit and mods you had to do for a truck newer than 04. It's a popular topic and not too many people have done it yet......

What kit did you use? And did you have to make many mods?

 

[alex9995]

04 and newer 5" lift

the kit is rcd 5" the price is 2325.44 it converts coilovers instead of torsion bars and also comes with a 4 link that kit also includes shipping 503-369-7273 this is the number for the only place i found it

no idea on the winch bracket... to post pics, they have to be on a website like photobucket or cardomain, then you cut and paste the web address complete, and when you go to post a message, click the little mountain with a sun above it icon. then paste the address. nice truck, and where is harveys lake?

For a winch bracket have you thought about getting a front receiver and mounting it on that? That's what I'm doing (Eventually) and it works out nicely because it also adds strength to the weak front end of the Ranger frame......

i have looked all over for parts and i have never saw one of those do you know where i can get one

You can usually order them off ebay. You'd have to figure out which one would fit you truck though....

Personally, I'm planning on just welding a cross-member in between my front tow points (should be one there anyways, imo) and welding a receiver tube to that. Should all hide behind my license plate (gonna put it on a hinge) nicely too......
