    Default large ford TIB on ranger?

    could you use large f150/bronco TIB front suspension parts on a ranger? all 2wd stuff. same design as ranger just bigger and longer right?

    or am i just dreaming...or stupid?

    My buddy has a raingutter ranger with f150 ttb beams on it and it added a little width and travel. He's pretty happy with the way it came out.

    edit: i have no idea if it takes any extra work though lol

    i understand what would be needed to make a prerunner. even kits need some fab work. i up for work! i just cant find any project threads or pics of someone using those parts from an f150. but thanks! at least i know its possible!

    The F-150 2WD & 4WD will cross over but putting the full size beams on a Ranger is way different.

    Here are the parts that will help you.

    Are you looking to have a wider 2wd Ranger or a wider 4wd Ranger?
