humm so here is the boat i'm in now . I have a 93 ranger xlt 4x4 with a 2" bl.Well the truck came with 215 75 15 tires , needless to say it looked stupid so I bought 15x10 inch wheels with 3.75 backspacing. now i kanda overdid it and slapped some 33" x 12.5's on her . she looks sharp now , but it kinda rubs a bit when i crank the wheel. first ithey were rubbn on the fukn bumper in the front lol mainly cause i never lifted the bumper after bl, fixed taht one . now i am rubbn at the i guess u'd call it the fender bottom portion. okay now here is my question do ya'll think a "leveling kit" 2" spacers for the front springs would allow me to to regain my turning radius at least til i can afford a real suspension lift? thanks for any input

I'm not sure about the front end of the ranger but for the rear you can get shackles and an AAL.

Yup, trimming the fenders is pretty much a must-do no matter how much lift you have.

Also, your 15x10 rims aren't helping any. 15x8s work alot better, clearance wise.

Welcome to the forum. :thumbsup:
