I do it is a bolt in swap, i think there is something you have to do with steering though...
Do a search in the off road forum, i know its been brought up.
Seems there is one thing you have to move.... Not sure what it is though.

It really depends how he did the SAS. There are different ways to go about doing it, some of which might be bolt-on to another vehicle, and others might require welding. If the owner can't tell you the answer, then without some detailed pics no one here is going to be able to say for sure one way or the other either.

If its already done,park them side by side and unbolt everything out of the bronco and put it in yours.Take everything out of yours,put back in the bronco and sell it.
