so iam looking at lifting my dd. its a 99 ranger 4.0 blah blah blah. iam looking at the 01-newer ranger k358 kit instead of the recommended k357 kit made for the 98-00 ranger. from what i understand and the research ive done the difference between the 2 kits are the knuckles. everything else is the same part number. now this is what i would like to do but not sure if its something that will work.

k358 kit
04 ranger rotors, and loaded calipers
99 wheel bearings and manual hubs.

i chose this basically for the fact that if i decided to get a new truck ill be able to use this kit and iam going to be in the market for some brakes so why not upgrade them to the bigger ones.


can any one chime in on this? :dunno:

well as Iam sure you know the caliper needs to sit higher up on the knuckle for the larger rotors you may want to go to rockauto.com and compare bearing part numbers there, also will the knuckle match up with the mounting points, here is where it gets kind of iffy,you can do alot of comparing at Rock, like ball joints and other suspenion parts also LMC trucks. also your going to need to check caliper to rim clearence, you will also need the 04 rotor dust shields
