I've picked a build target I'm going after and would appreciate understanding what suspension / tire / wheel setup this bronco has. Thank you!

Looks like a 3.5" suspension lift (no body) with 33x12.50 BFG All Terrains on 15x8 wheels. Hard to tell exactly. Might be a 32X11.50 BFG since they are one of the few tire manufactures that make that size. The spare looks like a 33X12.50 BFG Mud Terrain

I'd guess 2 1/2 suspension, 1 inch body lift by the gap with no larger than 33's.

Looking at it again, I believe you are correct on the body lift! I thought it may have just been new body bushings, but appears to be roughly 1"

You can crawl under it and measure from the top of the front axle tube to the bottom of your frame rail. Anything over approx 7" is the approx. amount of lift you have. I would also suspect body lift by the gap between your rear bumper and tailgate as mentioned.

Rear suspension can be composed of multileaf springs, blocks, add-a-leaf (overload) or a combination of.

Here is a replaced stock suspension with new body bushings and 33 tires on 10" wheels. I'm guessing the 1" BL and 2.5" SL as mentioned above. But maybe just 1" BL?

I just posted a thread looking for that application. Could you post pics in my thread?
