I dont know.. Their site only has em for 4WD, so im wondering why only 4WD. Dont want to buy something and have it not work right or have to getto rig it.

isn't ride height different even when measured from the suspension. though i am fairly sure that the rears will fit. however valving may be different if they actual develop their shocks for specific apps i think the 4x4 has stiffer rears springs.

I've got a 95 2wd Ranger with Bilstein shocks.

Go HERE (http://www.offroadwarehouse.com/Store_ViewProducts.asp!Cat!673) for 2wd Rangers.

Thanx for the link Prospeed, I've been thinking about getting Bilsteins for my 06 x2. I think they are the same as 04's.

Ur welcome. The ride is a little bumpier at low speeds but well worth it. The rear of the truck does not drift/slide unexpected while going around curves like it did when I had the stock shocks on.

i've been looking for a set of bilsteins or race craft(saleen) shock to fit my 96 that has a 5/7 drop. Anyone know if they'll work or ones that fit. later
