i got pics of the bII rear 1" compared to the 5/8", if you look you`ll see they`re slightly different shape, it bolts right in though, the only problem I had was the pass side shock, i had to relocate the lower mount outward a little because it rubbed on the shock, other people haven`t had to tho, also heard that on some earlier xcab with 21 gal fuel tanks it won`t work, Oscar

I just can't see spending the money for only 1/8". I'm going to work a little harder to see if I can get the Explorer 34mm bar to fit. If that doesn't work, I'll sell what I have and buy a
1 1/4" bar from Bell Tech. I called Summit and they can get it for $159.00.

I just purchased the kit for my Ranger. While it comes with F & R, I really only want the rear; not sure if I'll use the front or not. However, with this addition along with some KYB Gas-A- Just shocks I just got in the mail, I should see a BIG improvement in the turns. Now if mother nature only keeps it from snowing and heats things up long enough for me to do some wrenching life would be good!
