Thread: Rancho Quick Lift

  1. #1

    Rancho Quick Lift

    Is there a Rancho quick lift for a 2003 model. What is the difference in suspension from 2003 to 2007. Never looked and not sure. Sorry if it sounds stupid.

    not stupid. the 99-07(classic) is torsion bars but the 07-08 is strut type suspension in the front. totally different. you crank on the 99+ to lift them and on the 07-08 you have use spacers to level them out.

    you can actually buy ford keys cheaper than the coil spacers, just not as easy to put in.

    I believe Autozone or a similar parts store will rent you a ball joint press to change the keys out.


    Let me tell you what Melba Toast is packing here allright............

    Hell you can buy the "picklefork" balljoint remover from Oriellys for 13$ instead of having to pay 120$ to rent it all the time. (Even though you do get your money back ) I just bought it cause I was tired of renting one.

    I think keys are rediculously easy to change now especially since I had to change out like 4 total this past week
