Default 1 tons under my 93?

So I've grenaded my front chunk for the last time and I want to run bigger than what a 4-6 inch is gonna get me.

How hard will it be to swap 1 tons under my 93? I know I'll have to get new coils and shocks and put spring mounts on the axles to run my coil springs and have some driveshaft work done but other than that what am I missing to get started?

I would really like to be able to run 35 or 37 boggers. I've been looking at 5.5" springs but I just haven't found a way to get me to where I want to be.

You will have to make your own steering linkage and run a bigger master cylinder and a lot of cutting and welding.And new rims since 1 ton axles are 8 lug.Your looking a easy 3 grand or more to do the swap so keep that in mind.
