Ok So I am tired of having to look at two different forums and searching 40 pages of threads for this Information so I'm asking help on compiling this.

Lift Options 4x4 ST

** TT(Torsion Twist) - up to 2", downside no travel in suspension, only for the Front *Free except you need an alignment.

** Body Lift- up to 3"?, downside body gaps. *$250+. Performance Accessories

** Shackles- up to 2"?, *$40-65. Warrior makes a good pair for the Explorers. The Warrior model # is 153.

** RCD(Race Car Dynamics) - up to 5", Very expensive. Built for the Ranger but can be used on the front of any 2nd Gen Explorer. RCD's coilover conversion lift is discontinued. But you never know if you might find the parts used.

** Dixon Brothers Racing Ranger/Explorer 4wd Long Travel Suspension - $3000+
This is a coil over conversion.

C/O(coil over) conversion using RCD parts. RCD's kit is discontinued.
pretty straight forward. Buy the shocks and mouting parts and bolt it on. There is some welding involved as you have to gusset the shock towers. But it rides better than the torsion bars, and I no longer have the t-bars hanging down below my truck catching everything insight. The cost was about $1100 because I bought Fox coilovers.- Thanks Chad551


**Update**
We have some confirmations that you can fit 35`s with a TT/Shackels, With alot of trimming though... Thanks ADAS!




Now I know I might have left somethings out, had somethings wrong, So PLEASE Let me know and I will fix it. I would also like Prices if possible.
