My van was built with a 5 inch lift there are lift blocks in the rear and longer coil springs in the front.
It looks as though all the brake lines etc are extended. probably some work to be done for the steering control arms too.
Mine has a specially built sub frame for the front dana axle. It is a factory authorized 4wd conversion.
The front setup is actually w100 parts.
I added air lift air suspension with lift block accesories that they sell for that.
My experience is that the van wheelbase is so long that the lift is not as much advantage as one would think.

Didn't notice really old post until I prepped to show pics from my owner manual.
