The Doetsch Tech # 589800 3" Lift Spindles are designed for use on 1998, 1999 and 2000 model years only. These spindles help retain a smooth stock like ride and allow for up to a 31" tire to be used. For owners looking to keep a soft riding rear suspension a 2" block and u-bolt kit is an excellent rear lift method. For those customers that frequently haul or tow a trailer, the 1.5" Lift Rear Add-A-Leaf Kit is recommended because it provides addition spring rate which reduces sagging under a load. Add-A-Leaf kits do provide a slightly firmer ride when unloaded. For those owners that require additional lift to run a larger tire, Doetsch Tech also offers a taller 5" lift that will clear up to a 32x11.5R15 tire.
Tire & Wheel Information:
Doetsch Tech recommends the use of a 31x10.50R15 tire mounted on 15x7" wheels with 3-3/4" back space (may require minor trimming) for use with this 3" spindle lift.
Vehicle Fitment Information:
This spindle is a direct bolt on part for 1998, 1999 and 2000 model year Ranger trucks built on the coil spring IFS chassis. Out of the box these spindles will NOT fit any 2001 or newer model year. Why? Because the 2001 - 2009 Ranger trucks are built with LARGER diameter brake rotors. Earlier 1998 - 2000 trucks have a 10.25" rotor diameter. The 2001 - 2009 trucks have a larger 11.25" rotor diameter. These spindles will NOT not fit any Ranger EDGE, Ranger Sport or any other Ranger built on the Torsion Bar front suspension.
