First thing I would do is to change fluids and crawl under and around while inspecting everything I could. Check the belt and hoses. Check the u-joints and all the rubber mounts and bushings. Report back when you have done that.
They had a 28 or 29" tall tire stock and you may be able to use a 30" without any problems if the springs and shocks are in good shape.
