What lift size is recommended for a 1966-77 Early Bronco?

A 2.5-inch lift is our most popular recommendation for Early Broncos. It provides excellent stance and tire clearance for 33" tires without requiring a drop pitman arm or extended driveshaft in most cases. For more aggressive builds, we offer lift kits up to 5.5 inches .

Do I need new shocks when I install a lift kit?

Yes, absolutely. Lifting your Bronco changes the extended and compressed lengths your shocks operate through. Installing a lift without upgrading shocks leads to bottoming out, premature wear, and poor ride quality. Browse our Early Bronco shock absorbers for options matched to your lift height.

What are the best shocks for an Early Bronco?

It depends on your use case. Our Wild Horses Nitro All-Terrain shocks are custom-tuned for Early Broncos and offer great all-around performance. For higher-end builds, the Bilstein 5100 series and Rancho RS9000XL are proven favorites.

Will a lift kit void my Early Bronco's warranty?

Early Broncos are vintage vehicles with no manufacturer warranty, so this isn't a concern. However, if you're building a newer Bronco (2021+), lifting it may affect dealer warranty coverage on related components. Contact your dealer for details on your specific situation.

What else do I need when installing a suspension lift on my Early Bronco?

When lifting your Bronco, plan to also address extended brake hoses, e-brake cables, and potentially the steering geometry. An adjustable track bar and adjustable drag link are recommended to re-center the front axle and maintain correct steering angles.

Does Wild Horses 4x4 offer technical support?

Absolutely. Our in-house team includes actual Bronco owners and builders who can answer fitment, installation, and compatibility questions. Call or email us before ordering if you're unsure about a part for your specific build.

Can I return a part if it doesn't fit or I change my mind?

Yes. Most products can be returned within 60 days in original, uninstalled condition. Please review our complete policy on our Returned Merchandise & Refund Policy page.
