I've never lifted a Bronco only regualr pickups. I would guess that its the same effect. If yo ubuy a good kit there shouldnt be any modifications necessary. Check out 4 Wheel Parts and Performance Combo's Both of those places should be able ot out fit your truck nicely.

I believe most two inch body lifts do not require any serious mods.

Usually the only things Ive ran into are, steering shaft (longer) fan shroud cut for fan and sometimes hoses.

Body lifts are driveway projects. Get a sawsall, floor jack, some wood blocks,stands, beer and some good friends.

Maybe you can find a 78-79 straight front axle. Its a easy swap. Then you can go for 2 suspension and 2 body. Without driveshafts etc...
