About Rancho Lift Kits
One of the most popular options for customizing a 4x4 is by adding
Rancho lift kits. Your vehicle’s suspension is the system which directly affects handling, braking and the ride. Many 4x4 enthusiasts wish for greater clearance during their off road excursions. Higher clearance means the ability to climb over a variety of obstacles without damaging the vehicle’s undercarriage.

Lift KitsWhy Rancho?
There are several manufacturers who make high quality kits for lifting your truck, however, Rancho is one of the oldest, and most trusted. Rancho, owned by parent company Tenneco Corporation, recently celebrated its fiftieth anniversary in business. The company has managed to stay ahead of the competition by continuing to provide suspension parts which utilize the latest technologies to make them the strongest, and most durable, on the market. Just last year, Rancho introduced its RockGEAR line of off road parts which are made to be the toughest you can buy.
Rancho lift kits use your truck’s OEM suspension to determine the proper design. Increased height is added through a system utilizing coils, spindles and a sturdy drop-down subframe which keeps the factory suspension system working the way it was meant to, without modification. The one piece subframe is welded and reinforced, making installation fairly simple by not interfering with the exhaust system. This strong subframe is a signature of Rancho lift kits. Heavy duty steel torsion bar cross-members and drop brackets on the front differential work in tandem with the subframe braces in order to provide the best stability and durability. Bushings, instead of the traditional rubber, are manufactured from urethane to last longer. A rear lift block, U-bolt kit, and front brake lines are also included in Rancho’s newer kits. Everything except the shocks are part of this kit to raise your truck’s suspension and a lifetime warranty means you will have no worries about the quality. After installation, the factory skid plate can be reattached to provide optimum protection to the differential.
Another advantage to using a Rancho lift kit is that the extra height will allow for larger tires to be added, if you so choose. The lift kits are available in both red and black, adding to the style and looks of your 4x4.
For most off road enthusiasts, installing Rancho lift kits in the back yard can be a daunting task. Although there is no welding required, some drilling may be necessary. Without the proper tools and a large dose of patience, you are probably better off leaving this particular project to the professionals. However, should you decide you are up for the challenge, plan on spending two days to properly finish the job.
When you decide it’s time to raise the height of your off road vehicle, consider using only the best:
Rancho lift kits. With a half century of manufacturing experience to back up the lifetime warranty, there is no way you can go wrong by lifting your suspension with Rancho.
