more umph....

hey everybody! i am curious to know if anyone has tried any performance chips in their rangers. i currently have a 2002 SOHC 4.0L ranger FX4 that i am looking at doing some upgrades on. any feedback that you might have on any parts i could look into would be cool.

i also heard that there is a way to raise the front end of the trucks a little by tightening the torsion bars? any thoughts or input here would be appreciated.

Hello, welcome to FTE!

Regarding performance chips, you want to post your question in the Computer Tuning Forum where Ken the FTE webmaster will answer all of your questions.

Regarding cranking your torsion bars, I don't recommend it, but here is a thread with some info on it: Torsion Bar Cranking
