    Hopefully I will be able to use the factory springs that are there. When the Ranger cab was removed, the suspension weight just about completly unloaded. The 2.3x5spd I don't think weighs 500lbs and the suspension really didn't unload much when I pulled it.. The 460 might actually correct the lack of weight it now has, hopefully it stays allignable. If not, I'll contact Eaton spring and get 2 custom springs
