a 460 in a ranger? i wonder what kind of chop job they had to do to get that to fit. and if that is the stock ranger frame i dont know how much i would trust it with that kind of power and they must have stacked alot of pucks to get that 12" of body lift .

If you look at the picture then you see that the body lift is not a true body lift that you would find in a kit. They made either a subframe out of another frame or made a new frame all together. So its going to be a lot stronger than a stock ranger frame, and it will not be unstable like a kit body lift. Those are ghey. so is that truck.

Edit: just kidding. I love body lifts...

Edit again: I was just kidding on the first just kidding... Anyways, upon looking at it closer, thats not a subframe. thats a custom gap guard or something so that bald idiot can stick his dinosaur stickers on. Therefore, we may easily and safely conclude that the seller is socially inept and defunct. Someone who was socially compatible and able would have had a mother that would have told them that body lifts are bad... this guy must have grown up under a bridge.

What is wrong with a 460 in a ranger? I think you are going to hurt monsterbaby's feelings with that talk. He has a lovely ranger with a 800+HP 460...

well if they had the bright idea to put a 12" body lift on something then i was just curious of what kind of chop job they did to put a 460 in a ranger. now monsters ranger would just be fun and its done right too.

If you look at that pic, there's barely 12" clearance between the tires and fenders. Adding another 12" suspension lift would be even more ridiculous than the body lift.

There is a local here that replaced the 4-cyl in his jeep with a 454BB.

You can make anything fit.
