Front lift coil springs. Hard to do or not

[Broncoman1532]

I was driven my 86 today and 2 of the rear u-bolts snapped. I ended up putting some lift bolts on instead of just keeping it stock. I found a set of lift coil springs at the junk yard off a 90 ranger will the fit and are the hard to change out. While at the junk I found a smittybiult tube bumber. Cost 60 bucks was it a good deal or not. I will post some pics tomorrow my littlel bronco

the coils will fit.

The bumper is kind of high IMO. but how good of condition is it in. and how much money do you have to spend to make it look like new.

I don't like tube bumpers... Not like that.

The coils will fit but if it's more than about 1.5" or more... You may need axle drop brackets to get your alignment right

I am going to get the springs I saw the drop brackets there to so I will grab those. I did sand the rust and old paint down before I put I new coat on it

not sure what the bumpers are worth but if you like it who cares? it looks like you did a good job and if you like it then it doesn't really matter, it was only 60 bucks. plus paint costs.

Yeah I like it better I hade 70 after paint and sand paper and a wire wheel for the rust. It was a little small and did rum the fenders going on. I could find a clean chrome one anywhere. I am think painting it but I need to do the floor pans

I have a set that came off a 90 b2 and they were the same. I found the kit for 40. Since I had to replace the ubolts, the kit was the same price. What looks so bad
