Control arms, trackbar, swaybar links, brakelines, ball joints, TREs, Ujoints, bearings. Lifting on the cheap or without doing the maintenace items first. is the #1 cause of Death Wobble and other lift related problems

extended brakelines, adjustable control arms, an adjustable trackbar, and longer sway bar links need to be on your list also. And as previous poster pointed out, make sure your TREs and ball joints are in good condition.

You should NOT need adjustable control arms or an adjustable trackbar. Sure they would be nice for future mods, but for sure not a must.
