getting ready to lift

[shinta]

i just bought a rough country 4 in lift for my 92 4dr explorer. is there any thing i need to get or should know. like is everything going to fit. also i was thinking of getting 33x12.50x15. does that sound about right. thanks for any help or ideas.

Make sure you have longer brake lines for the front. 33"'s will be good for a 4". Did the kit come with shocks?

Shocks, brake lines-- maybe even drive shaft length.

also you may find that on the large 1/2 inch plate may be flat (that is used to drop the passenger side ttb arm) and the position where it bolts onto has a slight bend. i used a friends torch and heated it up till orange then put a slight bend in it.
if yours comes pre-bent then good deal.
also while your under there take a grinder and grind off some of that plate wher it may come in contact with your ttb pumpkin.

Edit: the driveshaft length is fine. i did SOA on mine and im still fine, even kept the pinion angle the same.
and it should have come with shocks if you clicked that option on your shopping cart.

i have the RC 4 inch and 33 12.5 r15's i did not need the extended brake lines but they are to there max i will be replacing them. the abs wires are not long enough so go to your ford dealer and ask if they sell extenders and let me know cause i just unplugged them lol and they are still unplugged to this day.
