No mods needed except rear bumper brackets and you need a few extra lift blocks or make some from some steel tubing for the front bumper.
Just go on ebay or summitracing and do a quick look. Youll find the one you need. Get one for an ext cab. It will have a few extra blocks. Or just reg cab and make the 4 extra ones. Summit has one for less that 90 shipped.

I have a 3" BL on my '98. Steering will work fine, your shifter will hit the floor. You either need to make an adapter or new shifter. I saw a pic on here a little while ago.
I used summit part number SUM-7853300. With this kit, you will need to make bumper brackets.

what kind of adapter for the shifter? what would it do?

Unless you have stick shift there is no mod needed.

It will hit the console and be really short.
