Default Rear track bar and high steer kit

I am putting on the Clayton 4.5 lift on my JKU auto. The shop that is putting it on for me suggested I put on the high steer kit and replacement REAR drive shaft. My jk is a DD. Is it needed to put these parts on?

the DS i would think so for that much lift. you might even need Front/Back DS. The highsteer kit im sure you could hold off on. It will help that for sure but its not 100% needed.

I have a 4.5 lift. You will want the high steer (no bump steer) and a front DS not a rear. The back on a 4 door will last a while but if yours is a 2 door you have to get a rear DS.

Oops , yours is a 4 Door. You will need a front DS so you can maximize front flex by not having the factory fat DS hit the transfer skid and exhaust.
