I was looking at getting a 3/3" Belltech drop or a 3/4" DJM Drop... now those two have quiet a large price difference... I was wondering though for the rear if it would be better to go with a flip kit in the rear or new leafs... Since the Belltech comes with new leafs, and the DJM of course runs the flip kit... I didn't know what would be better or worse for the suspension... Also I was wondering if there was any other suggestions for shocks other than the Toxic Drops... If not that's coo I was just wondering... Also is there any differece between the Std. cab and Ext. Cab suspension for the Belltech drop? Cause a local place I know only could get the drop for a Reg. Cab, and they weren't to sure what the difference was if any... Finally, could I do this myself? In all honesty could I lol.. I have no prior experiance with this and all the places around me want about $200+ to install it... Well thanks for any help... and I would like to go lower, but Michigan roads suck... Well thanks again

Go with a flip IMO. Then if you wanted to go lower in the front you would just take out the shackles and have a 5 in drop in the rear. Plus it would ride like stock. You can do it yourself if you can turn a wrench. Check out www.sporttruckdirect.com for some shocks. They're pretty good.

iight thanks a lot... I was looking at something on-line and it said that I need to do stuff with the from ball joints when I go to do the front drop coil and shock... It might have just been what I was reading... it was the Dec issue of Mini Truckin I think where they lowered that Toyota or something... it looked hella better... with the drop and rims... I didn't know if that all applied tot he Ranger as well and what not... I'm just kinda paranoid that I am gunna screw up and my suspension will drop and I will get in an accident... Yea lol... Well thanks again and I will look at those shocks... I was just tryin to get a feel of what's all out there cause it doesn't seem like everyone is extremely happy with the Toxic Shocks... Thanks
