Post lowering stuff.....

would lowering my 89 ford ranger by cutting the springs in the front and taking out a leaf spring be just aweful, or would it work for the summer?

Cut coils will almost always result in a stiffer ride up front. Removing a leaf may make the rear bouce more, too.

------------------

2000 XLT Black Sport, Flareside, 2WD, Ext. Cab, 5.4L Auto. Other factory options: 3.55 LS, Class III tow, 6-way Captains chairs w/CD changer, Remote entry , and Slider window.
Mods: Undercoat, window tint, headlight & tail light covers, removed "Sport" decals, upgraded Triton tailgate emblem, Linex spray-in bedliner, and an ARE LSII lid.
Wish list: Flowmaster duals, K&N FIPK or Velocity Tube, and a Belltech 3/4 drop.
