what is this lift?

[chrisw2012]

Well I was looking around and found 2 lifts and was wanting to know if both of them would work or either one would work. The first one is a traxda 02-05 2wd explorer /sports trac front and rear lift. The part # is 102020 it says it adds 1.5" in the rear and 2.25" in the front. What Linda lift is this??? It doesn't really say what it is or what it does????? The next one is ready loft 98-2011 ranger /edge /explorer / sports trac 2.25 leveling kit. I haven't seen anyone talk about this lift so just wondering if they work on our gtrucks part# is 69-2020

Definitely a misprint listing 2002-05 ST's with torsion bars and rear leafs. For coil spring strut suspensions only.

Regarding ReadyLift torsion keys, tightening the bolts does exactly the same thing. Search.

LCA's and ball joints will be at the same angles with either method lifted the same distance.

Okay what about the other I looked but couldn't find what exactly it was

here's a link with all the info you need about lifts for the Sport Trac with torsion bars and rear leafs,,

it shows the cheapest routes to go, thus the thread name,,

all of the info on the page applies to your Sport Trac,,

you can combine different parts to get what you want for lift, be it an inch , or 5 inches total,,

the only other lift that is not mentioned is the 4 inch Superlift , but it is sort of pricey, and a bunch more difficult,,

69-2020 are also torsion lift keys. A few thread discussions linked below.

Do a TT and use longer M12x1.75 bolts if needed. Apply savings towards camber kits and alignment after lifted.

What's is a came kit

Camber

Simply put, a Caster/Camber Adjusting Kit allows for more alignment adjustment. (according to Firestone, the factory camber is non-adjustable) Here is the kit I used and I'm happy with it:
