82 Pickup TDI Swap

Hi,
I have a new to me 82 Toyota Pickup, it moves, but just barely.
I put a TDI into my 93 4Runner without a bodylift, but I keep reading that for the 82 PU I need a body lift. Is that to clear the hood, the frame rails, or the solid front axle? I see that 4 Crawler is no longer making body lifts. Who is the go-to person now? I will do a one inch or two inch BL or maybe try to squeeze it in without one. I am going to lift it anyway, so a one or two inch BL isn't the worst. You might be able to tell that it currently has a BL on the cab only, That will not work for me. So I am either going to remove it or replace it.
Thank you,
