12" plus lift

I'm looking for a site that sells 12 inch plus suspension lifts for my full size '79 bronco. Anybody know anything? i need at least a foot to get a set of 42" super swampers under it.

i don't think you need 12" of lift to clear 42's. if you put on a 9" lift you will have plenty of room. if you really want the 12" just throw on a body lift and you have your 12". or do a shackle flip in the back and drop your front suspention. i am doing the shackle flip and drop. it will give you 4" of lift right there. then just all a regular suspention lift. and if you can't figure out what i mean by dropping the front end, look at your sprion mount bolts and they are 4" apart. just fabricate a mount for the bottom holes once you drop it.

well, i see your like me and don't like body lifts! well just do like i said before and drop the front end, do a shackle flip, and then buy a 6 or 9" lift. you can find those lifts all around, and if you can't just look in a 4x4 magazine!
