I was hoping to solicit some advice and maybe see some pictures to help me make my decision. I want to refresh the worn out suspension in my bronco with new components. Currently, it is not lifted at all and I like it that way; however, I am contemplating a slight lift (maybe 2.5”). I don’t plan on doing any substantial off-roading, but I probably will take it on the trail a time or two. Still, most of the driving will be on the road.
Here are two options I am considering. Wild Horses 4x4 has a stock suspension kit which includes new leaf springs, coil springs, u-bolts, shocks, and bushing kit for about 800 bucks shipped to my door. Jeff’s Bronco Graveyard has 2.5” deavers superflex leaf springs, 2.5” superflex coil springs, u-bolts, and a 14 piece bushing kit. I read some good things about bilstein shocks and was thinking of using those and ordering online. I would only have to pay the shipping on the shocks and I am thinking that the total would be just over $1000. That setup may be overkill, but if I am going to spend that much money, the extra is not a deal breaker.
Again, I like the stock appearance, but would not mind a slight lift. The tires I have are 235/75R15 and I don’t want to lift too much or I think the tires will look small. Whatever I do, it will probably stay that way for awhile so I want to make the right choice. Thanks in advance for any advice.
Also, if anyone else has any other ideas I am open to suggestions.
