Ok, I'm not really interested in swappin a toyota clip or any of that shit. I just wanna lay this truck out. Not lookin to go full custom. I know it's possible, so what's involved? I've already got a full custom build goin, this truck can't be down for very long. It's a 91 ranger. Any help would be appreciated, thanks

what size wheels? there not hard to bag at all, just on big wheels they are. ull need radius arm relocators and a new tranny crossmember, djm drop beams and some bag mounts. get the silver star ones,best ones ive seen so far.

hey bagged85...this is 95LowTide from RangerScene. i got the Silver Star front bag mounts on my 95 Ranger and well i had to do some changing of the way stuff went. the way they designed it so the bottom part of the bag sits on the beam isnt all that great. we had to modify the design a lil bit to make it a lil more beefier. i can post up pics if you want.

I got a 90 and its bodydropped on 17's with a 215/45-17 and firestone 2600's, radius arm relocater kit and tranny member. It should be no problem on a 18. If you notch the beam and c-section on the frame you could possible do a 19 or 20. If it was me, I'd just go with a set of 18's and do some other badass shit to the truck.
