That's all I purchased and I was fine. Make sure it comes with the extended brake line brackets.

I'm running the 2.5 w bilstein shocks.
You really don't need much more. Other parts can be suggested to improve the over all feel and capability.
I added the monster front adjustable trackbar to help recenter my axle and help with the possible death wobble issues.
I did drive it without and was happy with the ride.
You can add parts as you go like trackbars and control arms but as your budget allows. It's a great starter kit. Good luck!

X2 on teraflex. You will get everything in your kit. you can go with shocks or shock extensions.

You need wheel spacers right? Unless you are running aftermarket wheels. Am I right on this?

Some run into clearance issues with the rear wheel and links. I installed my links on the inside versus the outside to avoid it. Once I switch to aftermarket rims I'll flip them to the outside.

I added RockKrawler adjustable lower control arms and track bar on the front. This corrected the 'flighty' steering.

I have to get a few things organized....Im bummed out now, winter donuts are going on the rims now. no more big tires till the spring.

I have to get the measurements of the springs to for airbags in the rear.
