Default Sorry, another lift question.

I want to put a 3" lift on my Cherokee. At first I was thinking about doing the budget thing but have now changed my mind. I think I'm going to go with this kit from Rusty's.

Do I need anything else beside what's included in this kit?
Any advice is appreciated. I've been doing research but it's starting to become overwhelming.

You might need to do a TC drop, if you get drivelins vibes and to relocate the trackbar or replace with an adjustable.

you may want to check ebay for the 3inch rough country lift. i ordered one from carparts.com and it included the front coils, rear add a leafs, and new ubolts and all four shocks. they are selling the whole kit for 200 w/ shipping included. i just finished it yesterday and it was fairly easy to install. the only problem was that the kit came with the wrong ubolts for my axle, but i didn't know which axle i had anyway. i just bought four new ones from oreily's and i was back in business. but like the other have said you should be fine unless you get alot of driveshaft vibes, mine is a little worse than stock but not too bad. but who drives 57 anyway lol. good luck!
