OME Northridge Kit. What else is needed???
I am looking at the OME long travel kit from Northridge. It comes with SPRINGS, SHOCKS, FRONT AND REAR ADJUSTABLE JKS TRACK BARS. I want to put 35's on. Is there anything this kit is missing that will make things work/run right. Control arms, bump stops, brake line brackets, or new brakel lines. What is necessary?
Also I have a Rubicon with the electronic swaybar disconnects. Will these be affected.

I would buy adjustable sway bar links as well, and if your getting the long travel kit as you say I would also get extended brake lines. You might want to think about beefing up the rear axle trackbar mount as it is a weak point on the JK. I have the JKS one, it's very nice and welds on but won't correct your roll center. I hear the teraflex one is great and it bolts on. Happy purchasing!

Definitely give David a shout. He's legit and will set you up.
If you have the cash, I'd recommend doing it all and doing it right from the start.
Control arms really improved the ride so they'd get my vote. With the long travel you'll need the extended brake lines (or brackets) and bump stops.
Check with David about sway bar links. You'll need them and make sure you'll have clearance for your stock wheels vs new links. If not you'll need spacers or new wheels.
If you're going to add a front bumper and/or winch, add a front spacer in now to help with the sag from the extra weight. You'll save time having to pull out the front coils down the road.
Chickenman you just like to flex.
