Yes, ANOTHER project vehicle! This one I actually needed! Follow as I modify this truck! Future plans include new lights, a lift with bigger 33" tires, and lots of mods! Don't worry, I still have the 2017 Mustang, the 1990 Miata and the 1989 Prelude. More videos of those will be coming.

![HOW MUCH SO FAR? [part 26] 2002 Ford Ranger EDGE](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/k2XMwH8D3M0/mqdefault.jpg)
I just got a ranger just like yours, but white and your my inspiration to make mine look like yours.. I'm a woman and i have beeing doing everything by myself. and your videos are really helpfull.. thank you..
Estefany Camacho that’s awesome! Good for you! Best of luck!
@@OhYeahAboutThat its sad your selling that truck.. how you end up selling it
Estefany Camacho it sold immediately within hours of positing for sale.
@@OhYeahAboutThat I'm not surprised rangers last forever if you do all the basic maintenance. I just got my second ranger a 98 5speed manual 4 banger and I want to do a little lift and things like you did. I used to have a 94 4.0 automatic and I loved that one too but I really like the stick shift and the 98s looks over the 94, the year you have is probably the best looking in the front end in my opinion.
So I have 07 ford ranger xlt and I have done a lot of work on it It had new tires and new format brakes and a lift kit on it to
It’s crazy how many people are talking mess cause it’s 2wd like the average person uses 4x4 more then a couple times a year.
Jonathan Lamb true. It doesn’t bother me. You need to have a thick skin if you have a RUclips channel! Thanks for the positive comment.
I use 4x4 4-5 times a week riding around my failed checks traps and hunting
maybe so, but it's nice to have 4WD in the snow, because snow sucks.
I build 2wd rangers because I've never had a 4x4 ranger handle what a 2wd ranger can my toy is a 98 mid travel Ford ranger PreRunner build and my daily is a 01 edge 5 speed lifted as well I go wheeling all the time and have no problem going where most 4x4 trucks go let alone if I get stuck in my PreRunner you're 4x4 won't make it trust me !
all depends what you do
This is one of the nicest, well kept rangers I’ve ever seen anywhere.
Never seen mine that’s why 😉
@@sciamachystandard3676 same
That's because it's California.
@@sciamachystandard3676 exactly lol
4:00 Look at him take those sparks straight to the fingers, what an absolute unit
I really enjoy my '02 Ranger. It has over 365K miles on it and still runs great!
Mike Warren that’s great! This is my second Ranger and my fourth Ford truck.
OhYeahAboutThat what engine is in it
3.0 V6
Is it automatic ?
5 speed manual
Why are the factory lift blocks between the leaf springs & u bolt hold down brackets. Put them under the leaf springs & you will about 2- 3 inches how ever tall those factory lift blocks are
One of the last good looking trucks they ever made
u got parts numbers...?
Looking to do this with my ranger! Seriously looking to buy that same kit you bought as well. Was EVERYTHING you needed included in that kit? Besides asking them to include the longer shocks, and do they charge anything extra for that?
Devin Fine I called the eBay seller and had them include the shocks. I also then purchased rear loft blocks because I wanted it to sit level. All of this stuff together was from eBay. Find a seller and call them to get your exact price. Overall, it was not costly.
Were the longer shocks absolutely needed?
I think they were. I doubt the factory shocks would have had enough travel. There’s only one way to know for sure! The sad part is my rear shocks were new when I got the truck.
Devin Fine I have a 98 ranger and I did a 4 inch lift on mine, I went to a actually company called Max Trax, they came with a 4 in spindle and 2 inch shackles, I bought 2 inch lift blocks on the back and it sat perfectly level. The stock shocks do not fit with the lift they are too short and do not recommend driving with them after the lift.
I was watching a video on RUclips about how bad lifted trucks are. It says that lifting them causes so many parts to wear such as transmission spline shaft could snap off overtime from being at the incorrect angle, wheel bearings, axles. Is this true? Because I want to lift my Ranger but I don't want any of that stuff happen lol
At the start of the video there was an ad for the new front-wheel-drive garbage that Ford hung the Edge name on .😞
Even though you sold that YJ, I still watch your videos. You do everything the right way and it's inspiring to someone getting into entrepreneurship. All my money goes into trying to make more money so that I can do stuff like this. You seem to be enjoying financial freedom. Love the content.
JeepWhyJay thank you for the comment. I’ll have another Jeep one day. I’ve had several in the past. Financial freedom? I wish. I do enjoy these vehicles and the little projects I’m able to do with them.
You clickbaited the stoners jk enjoyed the video
Man this truck looks amazing 👌🏽 can you updates the link of the parts that you used please, because I can’t find it.
I'm doing a 98 did a new 8.8 with 5.13 gears and 6.5 lift with new leafsprings that has 6 leafs per side instead of the wimp stock springs and front with 4 inch lift spindels and 2 in lift spring with all new 15x10 rims with 35,s in back and 33 s in front and every thing under the truck that unbolts getting replaced then a camo paint job on top of raptor bed liner, going to run the 4cyl for a while to take advantage of the gas mileage after driving a dually with a 454 in it that gets 7 miles to the gallon but later I may take the 4cyl out and swap it with 400 small block and a muncie 4 speed that should be kinda fun.
Nice Ranger! I had the same lift on my '08 Sport and loved it. if you want more travel inexpensively, '90s Jeep Cherokee front shocks will give you a few more inches there and early Super Duty on the back for about twelve inches. Both bolt right on, but you'll want adjustable ones to stiffen the front as they're not set up for the leverage of the a-arms, and soften the rear because it's half the weight. lol
Dean Jenkins thanks!
Hey man that's a beautiful truck.. my son owns the exact same vehicle in Red.... And he is in the process of lifting the vehicle now Ford ranger it's a great little I have owned many in my time keep trucking ✌️
Wow! Now that looks like a true Danger Ranger!! Awesome.
I got a 99 ranger for my birthday she’s all black but videos like this give me ideas on what I want to do
Can you please tell me the eBay seller for the new tires and the numerations. I'm lifting my 2000 4x4 ford ranger and likely to upgrade the tires. Also would I have to install the spacers? Thank you for your time.
Here’s the link. You should not need spacers to clear the 15x8 wheels for these tires. Good luck
rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F111982980599
OhYeahAboutThat would you mind sending me the link to these tires? This link you provided does not work anymore. Thank you!
They are no longer for sale on eBay. I just tried to find them. Sorry.
Can you send a link to lift the old one doesn’t work.
Matthew Jackson the links expire. It’s just a Maxtrac lift from eBay. Find a seller and call them to have them tell you exactly what you need for your specific truck. Very important since all lifts are different
On my second ranger now. My first truck was a ranger. It was my dream truck before I could drive and still is to this day. I break my neck looking at these trucks more than any other vehicle 😂 this series makes me want to restore mine. Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
Gabe Guzman awesome!
Tough truck bro
wow looks awesome man, i have the same exact truck except mines an 03, same color and everything. Plan on doing the same thing in the near future. how difficult was it to install the spindles? also did the lift blocks come with shims to correct the pinion angle?
Toxicity thank you, fellow SOAD fan! The spindles required some grinding on the lower control arms, but totally doable. The lift blocks were made for this truck, so they had the correct angle built in.
thanks for the quick reply!
God damn that looks awesome!
It's beautiful! Great work.👍
Do you have a link for the kit ? The link attached no longer exists. Thanks in advanced ! Awesome truck BTW!
Your truck looks awesome! I just bought one of these yesterday! Can’t wait to put some mods into it. Great job! 👍🏼
Melissa thank you!!
I recently got an 05 Edge 2wd Ext cab and I have been going through the videos for this truck and now the black ones for ideas. I definitely want to give mine a more level and 4wd stance.
Only in California will you find a 2wd Ranger with a 3” lift and 33” tires, what are you planning on doing with this?
Crusty Rusty's Restoration I plan on enjoying it and using it for work around my property.
OhYeahAboutThat ahhh nice! You should do a 4x4 conversion and hit the trails! It’s a ton of fun and rangers do pretty well when beefed up
Crusty Rusty's Restoration mine has a 4 inch with 35
A lot of people in California build Prerunners for the desert
Slimmy Turner nice! Mines sitting on a 2.5 inch and 31s
I have an 02 ranger edge 2wd cool truck except without 4wd youll get stuck on a gravel road dont even think about snow or ice.
Joe Jirak not really i have a 2wd ranger been to the snow and sand no issues what so ever
Next time, wear some gloves when using a grinder. -Safety Nazi
Travelin' Ted not supposed to wear gloves with grinder. If they catch your hand will get grinded.
Love it
Arnson Jessop thank you! Lots of new videos in this playlist!
I own a 05 xlt 4x4
cool ranger. I love the single cabs. I would love to get one like this with a coyote motor.
What size wheels/tires were on there before you lifted it? Those looked great with the stock suspension!
Tim Castle 31-10.5-15 on 15x8 wheels
It would be awesome if you could find a front axle and transfer case to make this a 4x4 ranger. Love the new stance and tires, aggressive as hell.
TxGamer13 yeah. These EDGE models were made for places like California. The look of 4wd in a 2wd truck.
TxGamer13 what do i need to make my Ranger 4x4 just that A Front axles and Transfer case from a 4x4 Ranger?
IDABAYAREA650I I think having a Ranger Edge with the torsion bars is a good start. Other than that, not quite sure.
OhYeahAboutThat ohh, no then cause i have a 01 XLT Ranger?
IDABAYAREA650I I’m not sure of the details, but I bet you can still do it.
I fit 285-75R16, equivalent to 33x12x15 without all of that. Stock ride high is same for 2wd and 4wd Edge. All that I had to do on my 2004 Edge 4x4 was crank the torsion bars to max. It leveled the truck perfect. Tires cleared with zero issues of any sort.
I ride with 265/75/r16's NP I just put a level kit in and up grading to 34
Did you upgrade your brakes too??
StrikeForce Dad no. Maybe one day.
Braking is for pussy
I have an 00 mazda b2500 and after 20 years still runs strong. Inspirational video here. Looks amazing!
These 2wd rangers with lockers in the rear will honestly out do most 4wds (not in rock crawling) my 94 with no lift has no problems in the mud
No they wont
So Beatiful! Nice work! Hughes from Brasil!
"Red Ranger, perfectly restored..." 🗨🙄👘🔑🌀⛱
This video should have been called "More Gap, More Poke" since it's basically car porn. Looks really good man!
Because Miata thank you, kind sir!
Te quedo muy muy buena!
Kinda a waste of money as you have no more suspension travel than you started with just a lift.Not being a 4x4 what is the point?Now if got a whole new front suspension set up that gave you more travel and got rid of the torsion bar and replaced it with coilovers that be something.
2wd ranger thats gay
Watchfulseven 52 na
You’re just jealous because you’re pos s10 don’t look as good
I never really noticed it until now but that truck was dropped in the rear to even out the ride height if anyone has a stock ranger edge or maybe any stock ranger then you know about that terrible rake. it had a piece of 2 inch square tubing on top of the leaf springs but from factory they come with a 1.5 -2 inch block that is mounted under the springs but because it was dropped that’s probably why the shackles didn’t do much but regardless of all that to get it leveled out the way you wanted it you would’ve had to buy taller lift blocks anyway which is what I’ll end up doing as well
I have Ford ranger 2008 but is really down I want to know where u bay all kits shock absorber pls thank u
Hey brother Can you please give me a parts list I want the exact setup rims tires lift all of it for my 07 2wd
Nice ranger how many inches you Lyfted?
It’s a 4” lift.
Amigo donde podré comprar todas las partes que necesito para una Ford ranger 2003
Anyone know the stock shim axle for the rear of a 2004 Ford ranger fx4
My ‘03 ranger Edge has a 3 inch lift, but the body on mine is really banged up. Really want to fix mine up like yours.
I have an '01 XLT ranger 4.0 SOHC 2WD and I absolutely love that truck although I'm going to have to rebuild the engine at some point due to a rear main seal leak suspension work and tires are a definite must soon bought it for 600 bucks all I did was rear brake lines and upper control arms and it's driving nicely other than cupped tires and 205000 miles in planing on either V8 swapping it or rebuilding the 4.0 and making it a mild build engine. Paint job is also a must but that'll come later
could you post the link of what you installed for the front and rear pls? Thanks
It’s a beast
Good video. I just picked up Nice 1998 Ranger with 86k miles. Already lift and level kit, with Goodyear’s. 👍🏽
HARD ENDURO thanks! Next week’s video is about this truck.
Nice truck, nice job with it Bro. Any left over part U like to sell? Or can I tell us how to get that lift kit. I like one for my 94 ranger 4×4 project.
Great little truck. Since it is a 2wd running that size of tire. Regear to bring it back to stock gearing. Put a Detroit Trutrac in the rear, and you would have a sweat capable little rig. Again, nice truck.
What size spacers were they ? The link doesn’t work anymore
That is a beautiful truck... how dose it handle?
Jaime Pedraza thanks. Slow and not super sporty, but as expected!
That driver-side shock is a bit of a pain, there is hardly any room up there. The passenger side on the other hand is easy peasy.
Just got a 98 ranger single cab and I can’t wait to fix it up!
I know what that truck is, it's a fucking ford ranger!
Do I have to get everything that you linked for the lift?
Your ranger looks bad ass!
I have a ranger just like it, just a stock extended cab tho
LORD this is so confusing LOL. I'm a woman and just got an 02 Ford Ranger & I want it to look exactly like this lift wise and I have no clue what I'm doing or what to ask for. UGHHHHH I wish @OhYeahAboutThat offered consultations LOL
Lol I can point you in the right direction if you give me more info about your truck and what you want.
I have a 2007 ranger and im planning on doing something similar to this
When the spare tires was dangling over head, that made me chuckle. Nice truck, looking really good before and after the lift.
Earth Inc. thank you!
Bro.. You are such an inspiration. Looking to buy my 2nd Ranger project truck. But through your videos, I see that I don't have to go through the expense of buying a loaded Ranger off the bat. I can save money on the front end and get a good donor, then over time I can do all the upgrades and personalization. Thanks for all the videos. I have watched them all, and subbed. I know they take time to do, edit, upload, etc.
Thanks awesome. Thank you so much!
I didn't see coil over spring in the front as he was installing the spindles on your 2002 Ford Ranger Edge.
I have a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT with a 4.0L RWD. It's going to be more work to lift the truck 3 to 4 inches because it has front coil over suspension.
Johnny Duong yeah. The 2wd edge is the easiest and cheapest to lift
Hi, hope you see this, can you put a word for how the MPGs are with the stock axle on those 3.0s? I can't sell myself on getting the 33s if I can save some power/ mpgs with 32s
It wasn’t good, that’s for sure. This was not a practical set-up for daily driving.
I needed the idea on how to do lifts on a ranger (Bc I have one lol) thanks!
Wait, it had 2” lift shackles but needed an additional 4” lift blocks to sit level with the 4” spindles?
Those shackles ended up being trash. They didn’t lift the back at all so I had to add the blocks. I would just get the blocks.
Looks good. Nice lift.
35s would be nicer
Azim Aslam what size is the tire in the video?
Might be overkill for a 2wd. But would look nice and beefy with that lift.
How much wast the total cost of everything
All the links are bad now 😞
You did a nice job...I have a 2011 with 75,000 Miles. I love it. I am going to do the same lift you have. Love the look.
Thanks! Make sure to check out my latest Ranger project
Is this truck a two wheel drive ? I have a 2003 Ford ranger XLT that i have just bought very clean truck. You have given me a good idea.
It is and so is my current, 2007 Ranger.
Would you mind helping me out I have a 2011 ford ranger sport 2WD and I not to much familiar with the parts and have no clue on what I need but all know is I want a 3-5 inch lift because I want to put 33s on my truck but I can’t find a kit
IS Fishing sure. DM me on Instagram or email me OhYeahAboutThat at yahoo dot com.
can you update the links they are dead links
Have any updated links?
I’m buying a 1999 ford ranger xlt 2wd tomorrow for my son. What lift kit would you suggest? What tires?
Try Maxtrac. Good product for not a lot of money. BFG tires are also good.
What kinda weed did u smoke to get high?
I have a 2004 Ford ranger and want to put on 4in lift blocks on and get rid of the stock 2.5 lift blocks , will the stock rear shim for the axle be ok to keep
Your new blocks should have a shim with them, if I remember correctly.
I'm just about to pick up a 03 Ranger 4x4. Your build is a very nice inspiration.
Thank you and good luck!
Good looking Ranger! I have 35's mounted on mine. Have a vid on my channel putting some spaces on it.
Thanks! I’ll check out yours!
15 seconds into the video blew my speakers XD
damn the link for the lift is broken :/
Ok I looked back but didnt read all the comments but my question is why is the lift blocks on top of the leaf springs instead of between the springs and axle in the start before you got the new blocks?
chris wentz I’m not sure. I got the truck used and that’s how it came. They may have tried to lower it in the past.
Looks good and those tires look like super swampers. Why was guy cutting the control arm on the front?
For clearance. The directions say to do that.
How much did this run you I’ve got a 4 runner I go camping in my buddy has a ranger and I’ve been trying to get him to lift it and throw some tires under it. Just curious about price?
Black Lavender ruclips.net/video/k2XMwH8D3M0/видео.html. Here you go!
I’m not sure if I wanna lift or lower mine lol
This truck looks sick but I would never have done a body lift on top of a lift kit or a body lift in general because they’re very unstable
Jake Washburn thanks but this truck didn’t have a body lift. It only had the suspension lift.
Was a 4 inch spindle all you added to the front to get 33's and that height? I have a 2001 Ford ranger edge identical and I wanna add some 33's to it too.
Yes. And lift blocks for the rear. Look into Maxtrac brand. You may also need longer shocks.
The truck is nice but those black wheels are just sad man, the make the vehicles look like they riding on spear tires
Spear tires? Make sure to check out the rest of this playlist, including when I change the color of these wheels.
How much power did you lose when you went from 31s to 33s and how bad did your gas mileage down btw the black 07 ranger is coming along well
It was not a fast truck. Re-gear was needed.
@@OhYeahAboutThat oh so what about the gas mileage
Got a question did u have to change your axle gear ratio for this lift? Mines a 4.10 but idk if I have to regear for this
I didn’t but you should. It was slooooooow
I have a sport with the same setup and lift and even with 2 degree camber bolts im still a whole degree off. Any ideas?
Chad Green I’m not sure. I know my camber bolts worked for me. They were able to align it with no issues.
What kind of tires do you have now? You shouldn’t have put those Commie Tires on your truck.
Bryan J I still have them. They’ve been totally fine with no issues.
