3" Body Lift

[Ren1010]

I ordered a body lift from an internet site, for my 97. I tried to get the 2" for the 1st Gen, but I got a 3". I know that the Ranger body lift will fit fairly easy, but I was wondering if anyone knew if I would have trouble with the 3" for the 1st Gen. I could send it back, but its a pain with shipping, so I was going to try to make it work. I am not worried about the bumpers, cause i sord of have custom brackets already made. Any advice would help a lot. Thanks

If you bought the Performance Accessories bodylift 853, you shouldn't have any issues. All you need to do is get the bumper brackets made and possibly grind down a little of the metal on the steering link. On mine there was a little that had to be grinded down cause of some extra metal left on there.

Just checked it out online, and the one that I recieved was the 793 kit for 91-91 Xplorers. So I am still wondering if it would work. I will prob just go and order the Ranger body lift.(since it has been proven to work). I just dont want to spend the time dealing with all the ordering.

yeah I forgot to add you need to order it for the Ranger.. They don't specifically make one for the Explorer but the Ranger on can be modified to fit.
