suspension wise try skyjacker and superlift.

body lift wise.. the body lifts (2" and 3") for a ford ranger will work, i beleive the Performance Accessories PN is 893.

you can also tighten the torsion bars and add rear shackles to get ~2" of lift, which should let you clear 32s.

do some searching and check out the "lifts" subforum by clicking the Forums tab and scrolling through.

2wd you can do spindles

 

[section525]

Yeah, your options are a 3" body lift (Performance Accessories # 883) or the Fabtech 3" lift spindles... or both.

Now does that kit come with the extension for the steering or do you not need it?

fabtech spindles and a torsion twist will be plenty to clear 33's in the front. do a soa in the rear to match the front and youll be good to go.

Make sure your steering shaft is removed, and theres enough room and slack for all your grounds and wireharness'. The front bumper and rear bumper sometimes get hung up so you can remove those if needed. There are alot of brake lines and other such items attached to the fender wells inside the engine compartment that can also be holding you up.

you can purchase a 4 in suspension lift from les schwab for about a grand.

does anybody know the bolt pattern on my 2000 ford explorer

Bolt pattern?

I assume you are talking about WHEEL bolt pattern, and THAT is 5 x 4.5. The same pattern used in the older Jeeps too.
