PbSO_4+2NH_4OH->Pb(OH)_2(s)+(NH_4)_2SO_4(aq)

Explanation:

The partial reactions are:
PbSO_4->Pb^(2+)(aq)+SO_4^(2-)(aq)
NH_3+H_2O->NH_4^+(aq) +OH^(-) (aq) this one times 2
The net reaction is:
Pb^(2+)(aq)+2OH^(-)(aq) ->Pb(OH)_2(s)
The NH_4^+ ions and the SO_4^(2-) ion are so-called spectator-ions.
