Default Heres the plan

So, I'm looking in to properly lifting my JK. I have a leveling kit and 4door rubi springs and it threw my steering and handling all over the place. In anticipation for the new lift I have reinforced my axle and have the jks steering stab relocation bracket with the T/F stabilizer.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the list of what I am hopeing to get

-teraflex 3 in lift for 2 door w/ front lowers and rear uppers. no shocks
-OME LT shocks
-front and rear JKS trackbars
-Currie front drag link w/ tapered insert so I can flip it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
So here are a few questions
1.)How tall should it sit with a rear bumper w/ 35 on it, and a front stubbie bumper w/ a winch in it?
2.)Am I missing anything, besides drive shafts???

-
thanks guys for all your help

I didn't lose any lift when I put my bumpers and winch on.
But I have the 4" with 4D coils.

Depending on the weight of the bumpers and gear, around 4". If you get 4door coils, closer to 5".
Sounds pretty complete. Check the rear axle placement after the lift. If it is too far forward, you'll want rear lowers also to move it back in the wheel well.
