I threw together a page with the most basic of info just get a person started on their project and which direction they might like to take with it.
Please read this before diving head first into your "ultimate" handling Ranger project.

Performance Suspension BASICS (http://breitbachracing.com/suspensionbasics.htm)

ps, it's not uploaded to the RPS server yet, so I'm temporarily hosting it on my site.

Also you have to think about bushings to run on your truck. Rubber bushings will flex a tremendous amount giving up some handling characteristics. If you go with poly bushings, there will be less flex and improve handling. For those going all out, running any type suspension with rod ends will allow more adjustability and reduce flex.

I tried to go to the page on suspension basics but couldn't. Is that info posted anywhere else?

It's been moved to the Performance Suspension Tech section of RPS

http://www.rangerpowersports.com/tech/suspension/performance/

I couldn't load that last page.

That's the current address.

All the Ranger Tech pages are accessible through the RPS home page. Simply go to RangerPowerSports.com (http://www.rangerpowersports.com) and select "Ranger Tech" from the navigation bar at the top of the page. From there you can get to whatever tech you want; suspension, engine, interior, etc..

True, but there is a down side. Your ride quality will go down a bit. I believe the handling and increased responsiveness MORE than makes up for it, but it is a personal choice. The first week I had the Poly body bushings on, long trips were out of the question. I had to stop & pee every couple miles!

nice! never seen that page before lol

We can't load, can you check it ?

the page was pretty much informative. thanks about that. some more things to be cared of
