Start by removing the i beams, radius arms, and all related bracketry until you have bare frame rails. You will need to find an axle and front driveshaft from another vehicle. Alsp the brakes will need to be adapted. The setup you choose will dictate the next steps. - leaf sprung will be easiest You will need a front crossmember to mount the leafs 2 shackle hangers Drag link and tie rods for steering - coil will be difficult and there are many configurations to choose from. There is radius arm, 3 and 4 link with trac bars, triangulated 4link.... You will need to find coils with the right rates Coil mounts for the frame and axle Trac bar Steering Crossmember and links Shocks, bump stops, and limit straps

Will a 1997 4wd ford ranger 4 suspension lift kit work on a 1999 4wd ford ranger?

Not even close buddy. The 1997 model 4X4 used a Dana 35 twin-traction beam front 'axle'. The 1998 and up 4X4 uses a IFS with CV joints and a double wishbone setup. The only thing that's interchangeable on that is the axle blocks or leaf springs.

What is a Day cab twin screw?

"Day cab" refers to a truck which does not have an attached sleeper berth. "Twin screw"... on a single axle truck or a tandem axle with only one live axle (more common in Europe than the US), the driveshaft goes from the transmission output straight to the live axle differential. That's what's colloquially known as single screw. Most tandem axle trucks have both drive axles as live axles, and the driveshaft goes from the transmission output to the power divider (also known as interaxle differential), which in itself is a differential. Power is distributed from the power divider evenly to both axles in normal operation. This is what's known as a twin screw system.
