Default Is this set up going to work???

Ok, I have looked at, I know, hundreds of threads about this lift or that lift. What you should get or could get. It seems, to me anyway, most all kits are not complete kits. I am looking for specifics here from those of you that know more than I do. Please let me know your thoughts on what I'm considering for my 2007 4dr Rubicon auto.

1) 4" Zone lift and shocks $576
2) Skyjacker adj control arms upper & lower, front and back $838
3) Skyjacker dropped pitman arm for 4" lift $85
4) 5 Pro Comp 7089 17"x8 4.5 BS Alloys $670
5) 5 BF Goodgrich 35x12.5 KM2 $1325
Total $3494
Does anyone see anything I've left out?
Any reason not to combine these different suspension components?
I'm looking for as close to stock road ride as possible because it's my daily driver but I want good results on the trail too.
Anyone have a set up similiar to this that they are happy with? If so, what components do you have?
Thanks

Think you might do better calling David at Northridge and have him set you up with the suspension. He's very knowledgable and will set u up with a great kit. ImHO, I wish I'd went that route in the first place and went with a total Teraflex kit instead of pieces and parts from different manufacturers.

Click on the big red letters below, lol

Go to the contact us page and get the number to call him, talk to him and tell him your goals in getting a complete kit.
