When I went from 3" to 4.5" I got new CA's, shocks, had to extend brakelines, got a SYE(not installed yet) but every jeep is different. The CA's are a must to get you front tire back in the right place and an adj. tracbar to center everything up front.

yeah as you get to 4 inches or more you need adjustable control arms and track bar. you only need about 5 inches in the front and 4 to 4.5 in the rear. and some good fender trimming you might need a sye as some jeep are different than others
