X-cal2 and Rancho quick lift.

[Rammer24]

Ok looks like I'm going to have some money to spend on my Explorer. In the next 2-4 weeks I will order a X-Cal2 and hold on to your shorts...a Rancho Quick lift could go on the Explorer. Once I make up my mind if I want to spend $5000-$6000 on a new TV and stereo or $6000-$7000 then I'll order the Rancho lift. I'm leaning toward the $5000-$6000 to leave room for the Rancho lift. I hope to order this stuff in the next 2 weeks but we'll see how it goes. I'm going to email Rancho right now to get all the info I need for my Explorer.

Of course if I do put it on I will post the pictures.

You can get up to 3" of lift with custom coilsprings from www.coilsprings.com
and its cheap.
im not sure there is a quick lift for the 3rd gens yet.

 

[Rammer24]

I was on the site and they say that there is. I also sent an email to them and asked about the quick lift for my Explorer and gave them my specs. Guess I'll see what they say tomorrow. I'll look into the springs aswell. thanks.

[97sport]

They are priced at 199 each, so 800 bucks all around. How did you get them for 599???

 

[Donner]

Hmm...

Rancho says they have them in stock... but even still, the price is $199.99 per wheel. C4WD says Buy 3 get 1 free... $599.99. What's going on here? :shifty_ey:shifty_ey

Still, more expensive than Coilsprings, but QL can be adjusted. Hmm...

Confusing

3rd gen QL

RAMMER24! Thanks for keeping us in the loop!

pic - mine will be installed using the Coilsprings - total 3" front 2+" rear. can't discuss the details, but that's why I love warranties

but I can't hate on Rancho anymore

 

[Rammer24]

Nice I'm just waiting for my bank to get my paper work inorder then I'll order mine. I'll go with the buy 3 get one free deal and the programmer. I think the Rancho's are a good deal since you get new shocks with the system. Cant wait. If everything goes right I'll sign papers on Tuesday and order right after.

 

[Donner]

Good work!! And the 3/1 free is nice! Mine should be done by Tuesday afternoon... This will be kinda odd, because it's like I've been badmouthing them for soooo long and yet here I go with the install. But, no matter... there they are!

Pics when it happens, heh.

 

[Donner]

Oh yes, both will stay... right now, i'm thinking 2.5 to 3.0 front. The rear seems okay, but I have to see them on to know for sure. but the lift will not exceed 2.5 to 3.0. I'm even thinking 2.75 front and 2.25 rear. not sure. what do you think about this?

 

[seadawg]

Am I reading into this right? You can adjust the amount of lift up to 2.5', as well as the ride settings?

I believe the higher the lift, the stiffer the ride. That is a very good question!

 

[97sport]

It's a set lift with adjustable dampening. I just got the front done and it looks to be a 2" lift. I will have some pic's soon

 

[Donner]

Alright!

Be here...

 

[97sport]

after installing the rancho quicklift it gave me a 2" lift, with the new 265's a total of 3". The adjustable ride set at 6 is a noticeable improvement

Nice, it brings tears to my eyes How do you feel driving? Does the vehicle feel more responsive?? The vehicle looks terrific! Nice color

That is a picture I thought would never be able to happen the way Rancho was stalling... That is a beauty!
