What Lift?
I have an unknown worn out lift. I want to run 35's. I have a 1" body lift and a 351w np435. Will a 3.5" work or do I need a 5.5" lift? Most of the EB rigs is see with a 3.5" lift and 35's have a 2" body lift. I don't want to change the body lift. What about Wild Horses Rock Crawler springs and the 351w. Thank you for the input.

It depends on how much your fenders are cut. If you have the front fenders cut out. What brand of tires you have. What kind of wheeling that you do. How soft and flexible your suspension is.
I have seen 35's on with only a 3.5" suspension lift, but with some liberal fender cutting.
I run 3.5" suspension and a 2" body lift and I have rubbed the inner fenders a few times.
I haven't been very impressed with the WH rock crawler coils. My 3.5" springs settled into a 1.5" lift almost immediately. I've seen many others do the exact same thing. BC Broncos seems to have the best options for front coils. And they offer optional heavier springs for Windsors and/ or winches. I'm going with their 4.5" springs when the time comes.
