if i was to just bag my ranger on the stock rims or on rims no bigger than a 15" would i need to get aftermarket i-beams or could i just flip/switch the stock ones?

you definitely can not flip the stock ones or switch them because they are different lengths. I am pretty sure flipping them would actually raise the truck, even if it was an option, which its not.

ok, thanks and i guess that is out of the question lol. i know almost everything there is about an s10 or a tacoma but i don't know to much about bagging a ranger.

Do a search on here, and check out www.rangerpowersports.com

I've done 3 of them and I have threads for all 3 over on RPS if you do a search for my username you'll find em.

yeah on a ranger they will pretty much rub with a 3/4 drop if you have the sleeve bolts facing up haha.

You mainly notch the outside frame about 3 inches and the inside of the frame about an inch. Just be sure to brace it good. It's on the right side of the pic.
