    So I was gonna keep it a surprise but I got a stupid question. I am buying a 5.5in RCD lift this month but before I buy it I wanna make sure 100% that this will also lift the rear. Here is the lift I'm buying http://www.ranger-forums.com/showthread.php?t=127302 can anyone help me out?

  3. If it has leafs, it'll lift the rear. It should come with 2" AALs and 3" blocks from what I was told by the rep.

    It should come with the stuff to lift the rear. Ive got some RCD shackles, and they are told to give 3" of lift.

    The lift shackles are sitting in the middle of the towel.

    So your good.
     
  9. I thought RCD stopped making the 5.5 kit?

    They are discontinued , but they are a good lift and hold up reallllyytt well! And if your worryed about rear lift, autozone sells shackels for 15$ ... 3 inches

    1200 is a GREAT deal for this kit.

    They are getting harder to find, because that are such great kits. C/O and everything.

    The kit comes with AAL's and shackles to lift the rear, just ask the seller if those components come with the kit when he sells it. Also make sure he includes the pinion angle correction wedge shim also.

    Well he is selling me everything shown in the picture. I have no clue what the angle correction wedge shim is or looks like. Is it in the pic?

    The angle on these are a little extreme but they go under your leaf springs to correct your pinion and driveshaft angle to eliminate the possibility of a shimmy in the rear.

    Yes that's what you need bro

    They need a hole drilled in them it looks like so the center pin can go down through it
     
  19. looks to me that there is, it's just taped over holding a washer on or something.
