I agree with Davids78 on this one. A solid axle might even be easier to do than the D50.I'll add my opinion on this, since you're thinking about swapping in your friend's 3/4ton parts. IMO, if you're wanting to do this, and now that you know it won't fit, I would consider swapping in a solid front axle. It'll take almost as much work as it would to swap in your friend's D50 parts, plus you'll have the added benefit of stronger, and cheaper, parts

The Dana 50 ttb is going to be a huge pain to install in the 1/2 ton Bronco chassis.
The crossmembers are different, the mounting points are not the same even though they look similiar.
Your best bet here is going to be to swap in a solid axle D44 from a half ton or Bronco.
Then you need to find a 3/4 ton 44 with a leaf spring front diff (super cab 3/4t is your best bet, they are usually the cheapest to buy, and you will have matching front and rear diffs)
Swap the knuckles out from the front diff, change the spring perch width on the rear diff, and voila.... 3/4t Bronco.

strip the F250's frame a head of time so it'll be ready for your swap. just yank your cab with motor still in it. so it'll be easy access pulling your motor/tranny and easy access putting it on the other frame with no front clip and cab in the way. with a few friends the clip and cab can be swap together. that way every thing bolts into place and no fabbing to do.. just IMO
