How Low Can You Go? Be They Real or Imagined.... The Lowered Ranger Photo Thread

[HenryMac]

Kind of tired of the "Lifted Truck Palooza" photo's.

Saw this today and wanted to share... So how about a thread that showcases these low profile Rangers?

I like these... Except for the one with the wing on the back.

I would actually love to lower mine. This one is bagged. I wouldn’t want all that, but it looks nice.

I'd just like to lower the rear enough to make it level, anything that makes the tires cant in on top is too low, IMO anyway.

Any good spring shop should be able to do that for you....

One question though, re arching makes the spring longer so the shackle has a lot to make up for right?

No more so then, when as designed, the truck is carrying sufficient load to lower the rear.

My god... huge fail. Lowering a car or truck for better street or track handling is great, but I hate it when people molest vehicles into garbage with grotesque wheel camber angles.

Here is the checklist The vehicle MUST have the following:

• Absolutely vertical wheels, rear and front.
  
• Tires the correct size for the rims
• Wheels that don't extend past the fenders
• Wheels that don't tuck inside the fenders
• A minimum of 2" suspension travel with proper springs and stops
• No tire contact at full lock at the suspension extremes

Done right, I respect a good street truck. But damn, the world is full of idiots concerned with "stance" and very few do it right.

i get what youre saying but this ranger was built as a drift truck. its bed is completely gone and its powered by a LS. its almost not a ranger any more.
i would put lots of money that this one doesnt have any tire contact at full lock. its max steering angle is most likely greatly enhanced as well due to the fact that its a purpose built drift truck

Ya, but I was hoping for something that wasn't a one-off solution.

One off is awesome.... as opposed to "Me too".
