I have a few questions before i lift my bronco. I think im going to go with a 6 in pro comp lift and 35x12.50x17 truxs MTs and i was wondering if any body else who has a 6in lift would tell me if your car feels easy to roll or is it top heavy at all.

I have a 6" Rough Country lift and my Bronco doesn't roll any more than it did when it was stock. Some people that drive off-road alot disconnect the sway bar to gain articulation but this causes them to drive bad on the road. I think a 6" is fine for everyday driving although mine feels like the suspension is just a little stiffer than stock but still not too bad.

I have a Skyjacker 6" lift and 35x12.50x15 tires. The ride is better than stock and feels more stable. I did replace all of the suspension and body bushings with poly's, too. Even with both sway bars removed, the Bronco rides fine. You don't want to take corners at 60 mph, but you wouldn't with a stock-height Bronco either. Don't forget to re-gear the axles, or you'll lose some power with the stock gears and 35" tires. JSM84

Mine is a superlift 6 inch with the superunner steering kit very stable , Rear springs were softer than I expected and the pro comp shocks in the back didnt last too long , I would stick to ranchos especially if the upgrade is too much money , 4 wheelparts wholesalers has been very good to order lifts from they have made sure I had all the parts everytime . :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Well, here in Minnesota you can't go more than 4 inches above stock bumper height so 6 inches is out of the question. But my buddy lifted his chevy to 8 and used it strictly for mud and it didn't feel to horribly different.

Nope. Actually little to no difference on the road. The bronco is never gonna corner well, and no swaybars makes no difference. My bronco's road manners improved without the swaybars because all the bumps/potholes didn't rattle my teeth anymore. I say it's the cheapest (free) mod to improve your bronco on and off road.
