Hey guys, I need some schooling in late model ranger front suspension. I know its control arms after 98, but then the Edge has torsions (in 02?) but did the normal rangers change? What about 06/07? Thanks, Im a chevy guy mainly

Rangers are not that bad guys. The susepsions are as mentioned above. Everything 98+ is control arms except the edge which is torsion bars for a 4x4 set up.

Once you get the lowers don't forget to notch the rear mount so the arm can articulate all the way up. And notch for those tie rods
