So my newly acquired bronco has a 2" body lift and the 5.5" springs with 35" tires. this is too much, might not fit into garage in the new house. the 2" BL is for the ZF swap. i am not a huge fan of the BL because of the gap. but i think it will be alot of sheet metal work on the tunnel to lower it to 1" bl or none with that transmission. so i was thinking of going down to a 2.5" or 3.5" lift. i should be able to get the same articulation with these springs? they only sit higher right. obviously the drive line would be less of an angle with lower lift. i had 35s with only 3.5" lift with no rubbing problems. i think i want to stay with 35" tires. so i am leaning towards the 2.5" lift. would = 4.5" and if i can remove 1" out of BL then 3.5" lift should still should fit tires. also may add the doubler to the trans making this a better option for driveshaft angle. not sure on using that yet. any thoughts?
