Has anyone used these? They seem like a nice alternative to the ones that seem to run at about $70-$99 on other sites.


I got a pair b/c I figured.... Ranger/Bronco 2= Explorer, I'm not really worried about how much extra height it will give, as I am going to put it on top of a SkyJacker 2" lift... but I was wondering if anyone else on here has these or heard if they are effective.

just a spacer lift...nothing special about it. Personally i think the f-150 spacer lift is better, as rubber can split :) i got mine at a junk yard for 18 bucks.

I see that alot of people use the f-150 spacers, thats why i was just curious if anyone has used these and/or heard bad things about them b/c I plan to use these and Warrior shackles with a 2" skyjacker lift.
 






They won't work with the 2" Skyjacker lift. Your camber will be way beyond maxed out and impossible to get into spec. With 3.5 - 4" of lift you need axle pivot drop down brackets to get the alignment right.
 






you will need more than just shackles then..they'r only good for about 2"s of lift in the rear. You'll need more like 3.5-4"s. add some aals and you'll be close though :) can't remember what the 2" skyjacker lift comes with...you WILL need drop brackets though ;)
 






as j602 and codepoet say... it looks contradicting... elt me clarify and aggree with both of them ;)

the spacers you got will not work with a 2" skyjacker lift, as it will make your tires sit like \ / and there will be no possible correction for it other than bent beams or drop down brackets from some other type of suspension lift liek the duff 2.5 or a superlift 4" or similar
