body-lift

has anyone done a body-lift for a '98-'00 ranger? i did but i'm not completely satisfied. i've got a '00 with the off-road package and tow-package. the lift went great but the bumpers aren't right. the kit came with lift hardware for the bumpers and i got them lifted but the front bumper is not up far enough and its a little crooked. i had some trouble with the fog-lights getting in the way. as far as the rear, its up far enough but its crooked. i had to modify the brackets to fit around the hitch but isn't exact. anyone else have these problems, if so what did you do to fix this? tanks!

Out of curiosity, where were the components of the lift kit made? Not packaged, but made.
