lift ?
i rember seeing something about "basterd packs" but i put it in the search and no results. any way i was wondering if you can do this with ranger rear leafs.
i also saw a DYI on a different site that said you can add 2 or 3 inches on the front by puting f150 coils on,
in case anybody is wondering i work for a ford shop so thies would be super cheap.
any help wit the basterd pack would be cool

Usually, bastard packs use leaves from s-10s or dakotas. I've never heard about ranger leaves. It would just depend on the width of the leaf itself and the arch of it also.
As for the F 1-50 coils, they will give you a little lift, but keep in mind those are very heavy trucks and will ride VERY stiff.

S-10, Dakota, or Another XJ for the bastard packs.
Front, you could use the F-150 coils but they are prone to a stiffer (rougher) ride.
You could however use Grand Cherokee coils. Will give an extra 1" of lift while retaining the "Cherokee" ride.

You will get near to 3" from the f!50 springs and a somewhat stiffer ride. The problem with the ranger leaves is they are the wrong width. The S10/Dakots leaves are around $40 a set in the J/Y so not a lot of money. The most will be spent on new shocks. I like the Monroes with a Budget Boost.
