Leveling Kit

I am going to put Rancho's 2" leveling kit on my 93 Bronco soon. My question is will I need to get new Camber bushings or just have it aligned. I'm also going to put new shocks on it as well, do I need shocks for a lifted truck, or will stock replacements work.

As far as I know, just get it aligned. And stock size shocks should be fine. You could probably find some for a 2" lift but the difference would be minimal IMHO. Are you going to do anything with the rear-end? Or is it so "un-level" that you need to get the front up a little bit?

I'm just wanting to level it out. I'm tired of the dive in the front. I'm getting new tires when I get back from patrol and wanted 32x11.50's. Figured it'd be a good time to do shocks/springs as well as my shocks are shot.

I didn't when I did my 2" leveling kit, but it straightened my tires out. If yours have a little bit of this /---\ then I would leave it with the new springs, if not then I would get it re-aligned. Thats just me, if its not broke I don't wanna mess with it, it never failed me (in that case at least).

Arrow 2" int the Front

Fishin machine,
Take a look at the Bronco in my gallery, it has a 2" puck style spacer to level it. It only took a trip to the alignment shop and all was well. Level it rode, drove, and seemed to respond better. Please note that I changed all 4 shocks up front when I did the spacer. "Perception is reality". Only problem with that Bronco is that I sold it.

I did the 2" superlift coils on my old 88 and used their adjustable camber bushings they work great. and i left stock shocks on it. I'm getting ready to do my new 88 the same way. I fit 33-12.50's on 8.5" rims under it, they only rubbed at full turn. my new one has 33's on 10" rims and they don't rub at all.
