everything you need for a lift s right here http://www.jusnesmodified.com/store/...th=155_189_306 and probably cheaper than having a shop build it for you plus you will know that everything is right.

If's it's an edge 2wd, it will have torsion bars as well. If it's just n xl or xlt, it should have springs.

i am new to the whole ranger thing but, we went down to the junkyard and found a ranger 2wd that was wrecked in the rear and it was lifted so we are going to go down and take off the lift, not a bad deal a 4inch lift and tires for under $600
