the super flex coils are tall. i used them in my 79 .just install them . it should be close. mine sat a hair taller than my buddies 78 on 9" skyjacker.

if you have 6" superflex coils. you can buy 6" superflex leafs at bronco graveyard and thats all you need, no blocks. just use the stock shim wedges.

however , gubni is correct. stock leafs and a shackle flip flex far better in the rear.

pretty close to 8/8.5" they rode very good down the highway. my bronco had a 460 , one tons , 44" tires and i could pass cars on the highway in a 70 mph zone and maintain speeds of 80 mph with no problems. they flexed very good especially with the cage arms. but the rear didnt flex as good in very rough terrain. but did fine at ure.
