Lifting the 1979 Bronco

Lifting the 1979 Bronco
I got some 35s and now I am installing a 4" lift.
I ordered:
4" Deaver Coil Springs
4 Skyjacker Nitro 8000 shocks
Sky shackle flip
Extended brake lines
4 degree C-bushings
Drop trac bar bracket
Drop radius arm bracket
Already have a drop pittman arm
I also ordered the H4 headlight conversion kit at Jeffs Bronco Graveyard while they had the 10% off.
So, let's take a look at the difference in coil springs. We have a 4" skyjacker/rancho/or Rough country lift spring, stock Bronco spring, then the Deaver coil spring (LEFT TO RIGHT)
The Deaver wins!
Now I jacked up the Bronco
Yanked it out
VERY VERY DIRTY AND RUSTY
Sprayed some Purple Power on it and pressured washed it.
Now tomorrow I will get some rust remover and spray the axle then paint it!

Yes I am also interested in how much (if any) the lights work than sealed beams. Because for me this is not an inexpensive upgrade. I have 100W
road lights on the bumper but still would like more. The road lights do help to spot chuck holes and debris that the head lights over shine close
in front of me.
