Hey does anyone know if there are any leaf springs that would fit a 89 bronco ii, that would give you 2 to 3 inches of lift? Other than the explorer springs giving me a stock ride height, I need 3 or so inches of lift in the rear. I really not don't want to us a blocks. Any help would be great!

The Belltech 3" drop shackles should yield about 1 - 1.5" of lift.

The other option is to do the Chevy 63" leave swap / modification.

If you don't want to use Explorer leaves, rearched Deaver springs or Skyjacker lift springs are good alternatives without using blocks.

Honestly, with out trucks, axle wrap is not a hardcore problem, esspecially if you have a 7.5" on nothing bigger than 33's.

Thanks for the input. Yeah I agreed with stock axles it does not need to be over kill. I'm current running a Explorer leafs with a 8.8 rear, but I have the 3in block. Everything works fine, was just trying to move away for the blocks.
