Has anyone used these "Performance Accessories Body Lifts For Ford Ranger's" advertised on the forum? Whats the quality of these, and is this more of a scam, and should I stick to companies like skyjacker, etc... ?

Anyone have any pics of their 3" body lift on 2002 ranger edge?

Any 98+ BL will fit any 98+ ranger. Only variable is 09+ have 10 bed bolts. And the fuel filler neck and fuel vent neck hoses vary in sizes from year to year to year. Trip to home depot or ace harware for hose barbs and short length of hose and some conduet cures those issues.




I've had my PA on for almost 3 years now or so. Thousands of others have 'em with no complaints. It's a quality product. Only pain is the install sometimes. Damn stubburn stock body bolts.

Well, your talking to someone that is just now getting into this field (with a 2WD at that!!) and working my way up to 4WD eventually... But, all my money and knowledge is with my 2007 Mustang GT! :) So I don't know much, hence all these lovely questions on this forum to you OFFROAD SOPHISTICATED PEOPLES! HAHA

I've had mine for a few years now, and couldn't be happier with it. Worst part of the whole install was getting the stock body bolts out. One impact wrench purchase later, and it was smooth sailing. Overall, a great product.
