Question Buying a 2" lift, is this all I need?

So after a lot of debating, I'm pretty much set on buying the Skyjacker 2" lift kit w/nitro shocks.

My question is with this 2" kit, will I need any of the following:
-steering brace
-steering stabilizer
-brake line extension
-transfer case drop

or any other supporting mods?? 2" doesn't seem like much, but in any case I want to make sure I remain stock-like but can still flex a bit on some 30's

I already have quick-disconnects on the list as well. I'm not looking for much, just want it one small step ahead of a stock Jeep, and from what I've heard that should be plenty enough for me.

I'm very open to any other suggestions as well.
Thanks a lot

you might be able to go bigger for the same money with rough country.
