I had the Rancho 9000XL's and Wireless MyRide Remote Control Sysytem, I ended up selling the whole setup to another member for $150 shipped. I had used them for 2 years and they were awesome for any tyoe of driving, especially towing and hauling.

If you wanna safe some money on shocks and lift then just get the Warrior Products lift shackles and a pair of air shocks for the rear, for the front just do a TT.

Save your money man.
 






I'm lifting my 01 ST with torsion keys and shackles. Somebody mentioned something about getting longer swaybar links. Do I need to get longer bolts for sway bar? I'm only doing 2" in front and whatever I get from the rear shackles. Thanks in advance..
 






You don't need torsion keys on our trucks. Waste of money. You just have to turn the torsion bolt until you get the lift you want. Unless you are like me and your torsion bars are worn out, in which case you will need to buy longer bolts. MidnightRebel has the link for the place.. Real cheap.

FYI here is a quick video to show you where they are at. Same spot on our trucks.

Thanx for the info. I'm just waiting on the shackles to do the lift.
 












The first one is my new desktop background. Two friends and I went camping and wheeling for spring break in the forests of West Virginia. We found this old logging road (had to cut up two fallen trees to get through) and it took us to the top of one of the mountains. There we shot a 357 and some trap. Camped for 3 days. Not a care in the world.

Oh and the hand signals signify Delta Tau Delta. The fraternity we are all in.
:thumbsup:
Delt on.

I JUST REALIZED I POSTED IN THE WRONG SECTION!!!!!! :thumbdwn: :splat::banghead::mattmoon:

Can it be moved into the "show off your sport trac tread?"
 






Cool pictures.

You can move threads yourself in the top right section "thread tools." I'm not sure about individual posts, though. If not, you can delete posts and just re-post.
 






Cool pics tho... :D
 






Quick question, let me know if anybody is having the same problem.
I replaced all four shocks, added rear shackles and TT in the front just to level It. For some reason my rear left side is lower by about 1/2 inch. All the other 3 corners are level.
Is that normal?
 












hey pjibs, nie pics. i saw your blades at my local sports authority and was wondering how youre digging that bear grylls piece. i was actually interested in getting that gerber with the sawtooth blade on one end. howd it work out for you in the woods.
 






The Bear Grylls Parang is a champ! The only thing that my friend doesn't like about it is that is has "Bear Grylls" all over it. He hates Bear Grylls (He was a more Surviorman kind of guy). My other friend loves his machete, the first one with the mean hook. The Gator Machete Jr. is mine and it is a tank! We cut apart a 9" tree that had fallen in the road with it no problem. It's light and study, blade didn't wobble when we were sawing and hacking away. I love Gerber products and have supported them my whole knife carrier.

I wanted the Zombie Apocalypse Set when it came out with the Walking Dead, but they sold out to fast and don't sell them anymore :( o well
 






sweet, i like gerber too. i think im going to pick that piece up too for the spring. btw, your frat's hand sign is a sign used out here in the bay area which signifies to others the usage of physcadelic drugs!
 






Oh maaan... hahah It signifies "Triangle T Triangle" for Delta Tau Delta!
 












What do I need to do to lift my 01 sport trac 2wd beside a body lift and shackles and torsion twist? From super lift

Use Ranger Edge 2wd lift spindles. I think Camburg and Pro Comp have them. You will need to swap to Ranger brake rotors. For the rear either lift springs from Superlift or Deaver or a sprung-over conversion.
