I have a Ranger LTD and was wondering if it could use the wing with a back plate? If this is possible would the wing have enough lift for doubles?

Thanks
 
Not sure about the doubles question. For one thing it will depend upon what size doubles.
The wing will mount to some back plates.
 
The LTD wing will mount on Zeagle back plates, with no need for a STA. We have a special bolt kit that mounts our BC wings to the extra holes we drill in the plates for just this purpose.

The LTD has 44 lbs of lift, so it will work for most doubles. I personally used one to 175 fsw with a pair of HP100s and a steel 71.2 in the V. Plenty of lift.

With a wetsuit or dry?

3mm long sleeve spring suit. I had ton's of lift.

Summer time but it's never warm on the bottom.
