What's the diffrence

I am new to the site and have a couple of questions. What's the diffrence between 78-79 and 80 and up suspenion wise? I was just curious because it seems they have bigger lifts available and are cheaper too. Anyway this guy wants to sell me his 6" suspenion lift off of his 78 bronco will it fit? I am getting the rear springs and blocks front springs and radius arms. I know I will need a drop pitman arm and have to lengthen the rear drive shaft, will I need to lengthen the front as well? What about brake lines? What else would I need? ANY help is greatly appreciated!!!

Welcome to the site

As a new person on FTE,Please read this.

I would think this question would have been better placed in the off-road forum.

That's where most guys get a lift

No worries, it is just that the guys that know this stuff hang out in that forum.

This is what happens with multiple year topics.
