I have a '95 Ranger XL with a 2.3L in 2wd. I would like to lift it up to 3
inches, hopefully without getting new I-beams.

Anyone have any info on whether this is possible and on differant ways of
doing it.

Also, would 235 R15's fit on this truck? without rubbing on the front during
turning? how about the back?

This lift is basically to give me some more ground clearance for trails I go
on here in Canada. I do not want a body lift as that wouldn't gice me
clearance.

Four by four's aren't always nessesay!

A body lift will provide clearance for larger tires. Fabtech makes some
killer suspension lift kits for the Ranger.

I'd go with the body lift.  Most affordable and will give you the 3"
you are talking about.  (And many suspension lifts offer extended
travel in the kit which may very well result in less overall lift at
full suspension  compression vs the body lift.)

Something to think about.
