Tuff Country 83-97 Ford Ranger 4wd (with 4in Front Lift Kit) Axle Pivot Drop Brackets Pair

These Tuff Country axle pivot drop brackets restore proper front axle geometry on 1983-1997 Ford Ranger 4WD models after installing a 4-inch front lift kit. They fix caster and pinion angle issues caused by lifts without dropping the factory axles improving handling stability and tire wear. Compatible with select 1991-1997 Ford Explorer 4WD vehicles as well.

Key Features

  • Front Axle Geometry Correction: Drops the axle pivot points by 4 inches to match lifted suspension setup preventing excessive wear on ball joints and tires
  • Includes Adjustable Camber Bolts: Four eccentric bolts allow precise caster and camber adjustments for perfect alignment after installation
  • 1/4-Inch Thick Steel Construction: Laser-cut and fully welded steel plates provide strength for off-road demands and daily driving
  • Black Powder Coat Finish: Resists rust and corrosion for long-term durability in harsh conditions
  • Bolt-On Design: Direct fit installation with no drilling cutting or welding required using factory mounting locations

Product Notes

  • Requires an existing 4-inch front suspension lift kit on the vehicle
  • Corrects alignment problems from lifts installed without axle drop components
  • Sold as a pair for left and right side installation

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Vehicle must have 4-inch front lift prior to bracket installation.
  • Bolts directly to factory frame and axle pivot locations includes all necessary hardware.
