Hello everyone. I had a 1966 bronco when I was in the army back in 97-98. I sold it before I was out and regret it everyday. I picked up a 1974 and have been messing with it all weekend!

I'm trying to figure out what size lift this is. It's on 36 x 12.50 x 15's. Is it a 5.5? All help appreciated!

yo Ro,

WELCOME!

I'll delete the double posts for you; no worry!

your 74 EB came stock with Dana 44 with 5.5

Verify each;

Dana 44 in'1971 1/2 to 1975; w/Drum brakes; See SEPCS @ http://77cj.littlekeylime.com/Dana44_3.htm

- earlier years used the Dana 30

ILift Size and Manufacturer; I'd be guessing without seeing more info and pics of the Lift components.

For now, see this Tire / Lift Guide @ http://web.archive.org/web/20060115030004/http://www.roughcountry.com/Lift%20and%20Tire%20Chart.htm

Try this;  Some spring suppliers stencel a number on the top of the leaf springs. Look for that.

If not.., the approx. stock height of the frame-to-ground is 16.5 inches.

Measure yours at driver door center..., subtract 3 inches for tire height.

(due to your 35's ---- 6" larger than stock which is 29's)

Take that number & subtract 16.5

That should give you your (approx.)  suspension lift height.

Example: frame height @ 22.5" - 3" - 16.5" =  3" lift

This is "ballpark" but should be close.
