Default I'm new to FF. need some help!!!

Hey everyone. I'm new to FF, I have a '93 Bronco xlt with a 351w. I love her. yes my truck has a name, Betsy. I guess some people call that weird. I'm in Iraq right now, and when most guys can't wait to get home and see their girlfriend or wife or kids, I can't wait to work on my truck. It's all I have really. other than family. But anyway, my truck has gotten me through a lot of hard times, by giving me something to take my mind off of what ever I'm going through. I built the engine about a year ago. now my tranny is goin. I really need to find another E4aod and transfer. I have a 4" susp. lift on it and 2"body. I'm looking for an 8" susp. lift so I can stuff some 38's under it. I have 35's now. I also have some questions referring to if 38's are too big to put on the IFS I have up front. If I need to swap a straight axle in it, I need to know what to buy and hopefully where to get it from. I'm all out of options here, ladies and gents. I leave my beloved Marine Corps. in April and I don't have much money. so I have to find a fairly cost effective way to get my baby road worthy when I get back in september. so I can concentrate on going to school when I get out so I can be more of an asset to whatever police dept. I seek employment through. I know everyone has rough times. And I assure you I've had my fair share. but this has been an on going issue, and I have'nt found anyone to help me, other than telling me I'm fresh out of luck. That doesn't help, but the honesty is appreciated. I'm even selling my '73 nova so I can buy parts for my truck. I should have about $5k once it's sold. Hey Yall can you help me, so I can get my truck back in the mud where she belongs and post some pictures and maybe hit a couple holes with fellow ford lovers? Well thanx for listenin' yall. I'll be no here often.

My son has an older Bronco, 86,he runs 35's, a few "lift, I believe heput in a DANA lockingfront axle. That thing gets around amazingly well.It isn't too high and it is great for up here with the narrow roads and few turn arounds.
