Default RK 2.5 Max Travel Questions

I'm getting ready to put a RK 2.5 Max Travel lift on my 2013 JKU and wanted to make sure I order everything I may need. The Jeep is a DD with possible light offroading at times (for now anyway). My plan is 35" tires with stock fender and Bilstein shocks. I would like to keep as much of the factory ride and power as possible. My questions are do I need:

Rear Adjustable Trackbar?
Bilstein 5100 shock size? Front 24-146708? Rear 24-146715?
Rear Coil Spring Correction Wedges?
Front Coil Spring Clips?
Bump Stops?
Anything Else?


Thanks

i got the package from northridge which included bilstein shocks and teraflex bumpstops. I can't recall what the model numbers were but it seems to work fine. only thing i would add to my package would be front coil retainers since at flex, the front coils are just dangling since the flex is more than the length of the coils. I don't really see the need for rear adjustable track bar and correction wedges.

oh, since i have 2012 2 dr, I got myself f/r drive shafts and exhaust spacers. if you do get aftermarket drive shafts, make sure to get rear upper adjustable control arms to set the correct pinion angle; or else, you can mess up your gearing.

Yeh I would recommend the teraflex exhaust spacers.

You don't need correction wedges or a rear track bar.
