Add A Leaf Part #s

[Ranger]

So, on a NBS 07 Ext cab Z71, which'd be better to get? I had to do a lil measuring of my own of the spring cause every part reference I look up just gives me the 07 classic specs, which has a 2.25" wide spring and I measured mine at 2.50". Looked at Rough Country's parts catalog and found 2 kits that might work, one that is 48" long and the other is 52" long, so I'm wondering should I get the 48" and place it under the top spring?

 

The purpose of this is to improve my load-carrying capabilities and restore some of that "rake" I had before I put a spacer on the front to fit the 33s.

I don't know about part numbers but my BDS 6" kit came with the add a leaf and blocks, the kit says to put the add a leaf between the second and third leafs which is above the bottom spring and under the top two.

I suppose it doesn't really matter as long as I have it in the right order (tallest spring on top)...Did it require new u-bolts?

[silverbullet2005]

Yes the kit required new Ubolts du to the 4" blocks along with the add a leaf.

 

You can visit BDS at the link below to see their blocks and add a leafs.

I've added an extra leaf to a couple trucks now. Got the width went to junkyard and bought couple for 20 bucks each, they also had a longer center pin for 3 bucks each. Took them home buffed painted cut to length and installed.

 

I dont think a person needs to do much more

I'd prefer to buy new parts haha, the junkyards I go to around here are mostly old crappy cars and wrecked SUVs...The good 4wds are usually stripped down pretty damn quick. I found a 2500 once, even tried to buy it from the junker but he wouldn't go for it haha.
