85 4 runner lift, high steer???

Im new in this forum.
I bought an 84 4 runner with a 4" susp lift, MSD box, 33"MT tires.
I want to install a high steer but dont know what year and model of toyota steering box will fit on it.
I want to upgrade the brakes to something bigger.
I want to do a 3" body lift with 2" engine, transfer case and fuel tank lift.
I want to remove the 4" susp lift and install a 7" susp lift but without blocks.
can I use a '95 4 runner for power steering and brake upgrade?
my truck is going big, and at the same time go off roading with my kids.
thanks for your comments.

10 inch combined lift on 33's. Hmmmm.....

Do a search on crossover steering or high steer for your truck. Tons of information on the setups and components you will need.

May want to rethink your "go big" idea.....

I could sit here and tell how to do everything you want to your truck but in doing so you wouldn't learn anything about this site your posing questions to. I'm not trying to be harsh, just giving you a reality check. Use the search function for your questions and learn about toyotas.
First one is free; you can use the gear box and p/s pump(with appropriate bracket) from your donor. You will need to purchase a high steer kit. Lots of vendors on this site sell them. Brake upgrade should be at the bottom of your list right now....

I think the V6 Power steering pump won't work for you, but your steering box will work.

previously I had a 96 toy pu which I did a 3" body on 35" tires, snorkel, exhaust, shocks, spare tire delete, etc.. I wont say I'm a know it all but like to work on my toys. on this 4 runner the set up is different since I'm not dealing with ISF. thats why I was asking questions.
dont bother, you dont have to reply. Its just hard to talk to someone in irak that knows about toys. plus no reliable internet or phone where I could call a four wheel shop to get guidance.
thanks
