4" lift on 33's next to a 6" lift on 35's - pic's

Short answer.... YES it is worth every penny (IF you have "Small Man Syndrome" -OR- you just like 'em BIG!).

Personally, for daily driver practicallity (and to fit in my garage), I'd go 4" on 33's..... but if it was a "Toy" than deffinatly 6"+ on 35's!!!

Saw your other post about going to the 55s, are those 305/50s or 305/55s? Have any pics of the 50s from the front or back of truck?

they r 305 55's... the 50's are about 1.25" shorter but the same width... the 50's fit much better... might have to lift it higher... sorry, no pics

Same here..


Looks like both trucks have about the same amount of clearance.

Fishintahoe... i've always loved the 2dr tahoes & yukons... i had a 1980 bronco in HS with a 6" suspension & 3" body w/ 39.5's on it... it was a big P.O.S... A rich kid at our HS had a brand new Yukon w/ the same amount of lift an 38's... needless to say i was a little jealous... but hey, that was almost 15 years ago... and way before 20" rims... i had 15's, but i kept them clean

Sounds like one mean bronco. Yea i remember 15's haha. The star rims were very popular back then. I had a Z71 extended cab from age 19 to 30. and thats where i got hooked on 4x4. This is my 1st 2door. I love it.

i bought it from the owner of a shop called off road unlimited... it was decked out... but like I said POS... i bought it for $2500. he launched it like 20ft in a competition called the tough truck contest at the astrodome... engine was 351 bored and balanced to a 400, lockers front and rear, gears, 9" of lift, duel exhaust... and since i was 17 when i got it i put 4 12's in the back... here's the only pic i have left of it

Nice. Yea for dd i would keep it at 33s... 35s cost hella more and its not prqcticle because there are places where it wont fit. I had 35s but sold them and gonna go 33s eventually

Nice one man.. what is it.. 80? 81? a friend of mine had one also but with 33s and 351 windsor. He put that truck thru every ditch and puddle he could fine. his was an 84 midnight blue with a white top.

Mine barely fits in my garage. I think when i install my light bar... its not gonna fit in there

Think I'd rather have a Bronco on 39's than a IFS Yukon on 38's. Also, I'm glad I never had a "new" car in high school lol

I've always like Bronco's though. Just as much as Blazers/Tahoe/Yukon 2 doors lol
