Whats up everybody? Ive been on here but never have introduced myself. I own a 2002 Ranger XLT with some mods, nothing too extreme yet. Im looking into doing a coilover swap this summer but have a few Q's before hand. Im not all there when it comes to suspension, so please bare with me. Will I gt any amount of lift with the coilovers? I want something close to the RCD hight but will only run a 33" tire max. I know theres alot of threads on this but Im just curious and Im at work and dont have time to search! lol Oh yeah, heres the truck!

Welcome To The Forum! Good Lookin' Truck! I think it needs some beefier tires IMO but thats just me . Good luck with it.

Welcome to this forum! That's a very nice, clean looking truck! How many miles does it have?

Welcome to Explorer Forum!
Do a search for max lift and tires. You should be able to squeeze 32s or 33s with a much milder cheaper lift.

Thanx guys, I just passed 96,000 miles. I know of lifts and max tire sizes, but I want to swap to coilovers for the ride quality and the uniquness of it, plus I want an RCD but dont have the money and my buddy and I are going to fabricate everything else.
