Also budget in an SYE. Also upgrade to the Nitro shocks as well. Also get the adjustable track bar.

oh...then you'll be fine with it. brake lines should be changed, especially the rears. You can grab some 1995 YJ lines for about $20 at your parts store. They are 3" longer than stock. I run those with my 5" rear.
