How much lift do you run?

Post by stevenf »

I know these BII's of ours are very top heavy. With stock rims(no extra backspaceing) what size lift would you recommend going? I was thinking of 32" tires but 33's with 1.5" fender trim MIGHT be the route I take.

All i have done to my 1990 5-speed bronco II is 2" blocks in back and two of the biggest screw in spring spreaders in each front spring. I'm running 30x9.5 all terrains one the stock rims with only one problem, when the rear suspension bottomed out, the body cut the side of one of the tires, but i was doing about 30mph through some very rough trails in the woods. i'm very pleased with its speed and manuverability in 4-LO. Thick mud will stick it though. :frown:

4 inch lift but the new spring where holding the front at 6" so I built shackles and leveled the B2 so I am sitting about 6 inches. 31x10.5 tires.

I am getting ready to put a 2 inch body lift on, I am started on the V8 swap.
