This is my 93 Ranger. It has a 4.0 and a 5-speed trans. Lift consists of a Procomp 5 inch suspension lift and 3" body lift. National springs with flipped shackles sit out back and Procomp ES3000 shocks are used as well. Suspension travel is hovering around 15-16 inches at the back and 14 inches for the front. Tires are Procomp 33" A/T and wheels are Eagle Alloys 589's 15x8. The engine has a K@N cone intake and a Flownmaster 2.5" exhaust that dumps out under the truck. I would try to add more power but at 188,000 miles on the original unrebuilt motor I don't want to press my luck. Prerunner bumper fabbed by Tim Lewis of Pro Fab Unlimited Burbank California.

I decided to keep the truck clean and free from tasteless euro lights, stripes, or worthless clip on racing pedals. When I bought the truck it had all of that stuff tacked on to it :X But after a year and a half of owning it I have brought it up to a nice looking Ranger. Hope you like :-)

Update 4-10-2004: I removed two of the center leafs out of the leaf spring packs in the rear and put rancho 9000's in the back as well. The result: the truck sits 2 inches lower in the rear, handles a hell of a lot better and rides like a Caddy. It was well worth the hour and a half of work. Now the truck doesn't nose dive nearly as bad and looks real sharp.

Update 12-30-2004: Wow I haven't been here in a while! Well I kinda crashed the Ranger into a ditch a few months back. It tweaked the body, bumper and left fender but shes still driving :) Just turned over 192,100 miles and still runs as smooth as it did back in 88,000 mile days. It even beat a V6 Tacoma Prerunner last week :D As for the damage it's going to get fiberglass 4" wider fenders, a new prerunner bumper built, all new bushings-steering parts replaced and the body will be set back straight on the frame very soon. Im keeping it going for well over 200,000 miles!

Update 8-7-2005: Well I killed the Ranger. While traveling on the freeway going home I was hit from behind on the left rear. This caused me to lose control and flip the truck about eight to ten times before coming to a rest on the passenger side. I got thrown out and landed about thirty feet from the truck. I ended up staying in the hospital for about a week for observation and for the fact that my leg got torn open bad, but no broken bones or internal bleeding thank god. Look for the new Ranger soon!

Hey i love the truck and want to do something along the same lines to mine but need to know whats suspension to get. I dont want to spend thousands of dollars and it needs to ride and handle good on the road too. Any suggestions?

I've always wondered about the shackle flip in the rear. is it very hard to do, does it require dismantling the entire leaf spring components and buying new brackets. I have a 2001 Ranger and i just want the rear to sit a bit lower than the front.

Damn man, Can't beleive you rolled it 8 or 10 times... That's sick. I rolled my 1995 Ranger about 1.5 times and I thought that was fucked up. It wasn't written off, and I fixed her up. Check it out.
