Body lift

I've got a 90 Bronco and need to replace the body mount bushings.This would be the ideal time to put on a body lift.A couple of questions.With a 3" lift what other mods will I have to make?I've heard the fan shroud has to be modified.What about the throttle linkage and the tranny TV cable?Would I need extended brake lines?Just trying to see what else this will involve.If anyone has some tips on removing the body mounts I'm all ears.I hear they can be a pita to get apart.

Thanks,
Billy

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-Jun-02 AT 08:22 AM (EST)]the brakelines should have enough flex the TV cable you might have to change the mount Performance Acc kit should come with everything you need for your truck. You might have to change the transfer case shifter hole if you don't have a electronic shift transfer case if you have an automatic tranny the kit will include an extension for the linkage I know some Automatics have enough adjustment on the linkage and some don't. The kit should also include a new bracket to remount the park brake cable. The kits I have installed in the past included the fan shroud drop brackets. And on some F150-250 applications they suggest just cutting the plastic shroud in 1/2 to make up for the lift which works ok also. Your throttle linkage should also be okay no mods there.
