Hi Proto, probably the best guy to answer that is Roger Brown, who makes the best body lifts.

Look in our vendor section for his "4Crawler" logo which will take you to his site.
He can explain all what's needed to put one on.

If you go with a 1" lift, you don't need to mod anything.
If you go with a 2" lift, you may need to extend the steering, and do some radiator work, and fab a mount for your bumper.

With his 1" lift, you can get 33s under there.
He's got some pics of a truck with the same body style as our 2nd gens he did that too, and it has 33s on it.
