the rear is a lot easier than doing a full width front.
basically, all you have to do is set up and weld in the new leaf spring perches and shock mounts. then get a hybrid u-joint to run the rear shaft.

but as for the front, you have coil buckets, steering, control arms, shock mounts etc.

but why a 14 bolt? they are unnecessarily huge, you would need to run at least 37 inch tires so the diff doesn't just drag along the rocks.
very pointless in my opinion.
