Lift for 35

I have a 89 Bronco that I am planning to put 35/12.5 on pretty soon, what do you guys think would be the best lift for that size tire??

I'd go 6".The price difference is not that much.With the 4" you might have some clearance problems if you plan to wheel it hard.I don't know what gear your running but if you go to 35's with stock gears it's gonna be a dog.

I've got a 4" lift with 35s on both of my Broncos, and the tires fit fine. Every now and then I will get some rubbing, so if you plan on doing any serious wheeling, I'd go 6" lift.

With adding 35" tires,and a 4"or6" suspension lift,I'd suggest 4.10:1 gears(unless your Bronco got them at the factory),or even 4.56:1 gears.Axle code for factory 4.10s is either 25(open),or H5(limited-slip).This info.can be found on your Bronco's data sticker/decal located inside the driver's side door jam.
