layin out ford ranger I-Beams?

just wonderin what it takes to lay out fords i-beam front end on the rangers.

on 17s? not a whole lot. on anything bigger, i think youll hear suggestions like "toyota front clip". its possible to lay body on 20s on ibeams, but i wouldnt recommend it.

Make new tubular ones with more drop.

more info please? im lookin at doin this for a fullsize ford,95 model. do you have any pics or resources for makin new ones?

I have never done it but have looked at dream beams and I don't think that it would be to hard to fab up something like this but with more drop. I'm sure that someone in the world has thought of this before me and is either working on it or has done it already.

yea,i have been doin the same. i was just hoping someone might have pics of it,may be cheaper the $400 beams

Do a yota clip or mustang II. I had custom tubular brackets made for mine. JIMMY

ALso check rangerpowersports.com for mre info on this.

yea for 400 bux u can get drop spindles and a yota clip lol.

shoot yourself in the foot, its about that much fun.

I have a stock old square body ranger and making new beams is something I plan on doing. It seems there could be a small market for them if they could be a bolt item. Not evenybody wants to clip their truck with a toyota clip or has the knowledge, tools, or skills to do it.

if they would would a bit cheaper then say,DJM,there would probably be a market. im gonna take ur idea and look at builin some fullsize ford beams. hopefully the junkyard will have a frame for me next week.
