Hey guys. I want to do a 5/7 drop on my truck. I want to do it with springs, spindles, blocks, and a flip kit. will i have to get beams too? and will I need a notch? Also, what size rims will I be able to fit with the new drop? thanks a lot guys.

Springs will get you 2" of drop, and beams will get you the other 3" you need. Drop spindles dont exist for rangers, or at least noone around here has any.
Flipkit and blocks for the rear, flipkit will give you about 4" of drop, and then you can use blocks or flip the hangers for another 2". Notch would help greatly, as you'll be sitting on the bumpstops if not. Rims... it all depends on the size of your tires.

i have a 5/7 now, i got 2" springs and beams up front and a flip and 3" blocks out back. Had to cut out the bumpstops, with them gone i only have about 1/4 inch travel before the axle hits unless i air up my shocks. I dont have a notch yet. If you are going to do it without a notch get air shocks. Not sure about the rest of the models but if you have a long box like I do your driveshaft will rub on a crossmember under the cab when all the way down.
