Default Good deal on lift?

As most of you know im still pretty new here and new to jeeps. But I am very mechanically inclined.

I am looking at a 3" RE lift someone is selling local for $150. He says its all brand new and comes with, Front coils, xj rear leaf with AAL, and lower control arms. He tells me its complete minus nuts/bolts and brake lines.

So what else will I need to install a 3"?
Shocks of course, Someone is selling zj skyjacker shocks local for a 0-3" for $75. Would those work? Also with 3" am i going to need sway bar extenders or drop pitman arm?

And as far as brake lines go should I just use stock Wrangler lines? if so would I do both front and rear or only front?

Thanks

This is the RE 3.5" aal kit, http://www.rubiconexpress.com/Suspen...px?part=RE6010 , sound like a deal. You will need shocks, and possibly an adjustable trackbar.

Well from the looks of that it doesnt come with shocks either. So it is a damn good deal. I dont have any experience with there stuff, will i be able to easily identify that it is indeed RE stuff when i go to look at it?
