Default Piecing a lift together - various brands - issues?

OK, so here is what I plan on doing. Every out of the box lift has its ups/downs, so I want to piece something together to get everything I want.
Here is the build im planning on:
RK 2.5" triple rate springs
RK sway bar discos/links
JKS front track bar and sector shaft reinforcement
JKS rear track bar mount
Carolina Metal Masters tie rod and drag link w/ flip kit and ram clevis
RK Triple Threat Long arm upgrade

Can anyone think of anything im missing/any issues I will have? I know I will need front DS as well. Plan on doing a Rear currie anti-rock if I decide to do the genright auxilliary rear fuel tank. Thanks for the help everybody!! And thanks for all the advice youve been giving me unknowingly over the past year or so!

Your going to need longer brake lines or drop brackets. Also what about shocks? Definitely going to need longer ones!

Depends on set up and what you plan to do with it. You left out the most important part, the tire size.

X2. Hate my RK discos. JKS are really nice.
