Lift question

I have a 93 ford Bronco, and would like to give it a 6 or 8 inch suspention lift. It's stock right now. Anyone have any advice of which lift to go with, product wise? cheap is good, but quality is great.

Your best bet here is to do a little research. You will get as many recommendations as there are manufacturers of lift systems. Someone has had a good or a bad experience with almost all of them. There are many names thrown around when discussing these products. The best bet is to read and understand as much about them as possible before making the decision.

Some names and addresses you may want to look at:

Superlift
www.superlift.com
Rancho
www.gorancho.com
Rough Country
http://rough.roughcountry.com
Tuff Country
www.tuffcountry.com
BDS
www.bds-suspension.com
Skyjacker
www.skyjacker.com
Explorer Pro Comp
www.explorerprocomp.com
Trailmaster
www.trailmastersuspension.com

On a completely subjective note, I absolutely love the Tuff Country lift that I have. They provide for some additional alignment capabilities that are incorporated into the lift components which can be very helpful when dealing with the TTB front end.

I've lifted my truck 3 times now. If I were to start from scratch again, I'd go with the 8" Skyjacker kit. With 9" of lift I just clear 35x14.5x15 tires on 10" rims. You can see a picture of my truck in my gallery to get an idea.

Usually when they list it as a "system" it will include the radius arms and sometimes shocks. The "kit" doesn't usually have either. You'll want to make sure you have all the parts needed to compare prices.

Here's a link to the Superlift Superrunner system with the arms and shocks. You can check out Skyjacker on their site too.
