i suppose you will be buying the lift kit. get it from a good reputible maker. at 4" you may need to do a TC drop and and SYE.

new shocks
longer rear brake line
relocate front brake lines/or longer front lines
TC drop at least
Adjustable trac bar
adjustable control arms are suggested
extended sway bar links/ or a pair of disco's
ditch rear sway bar

thanks all an im going with the rubicon express 4.5" lift kit super flex from off the quadratech site.
why do u recomend adjustable control arms, the kit comes with fixed ones will they be all right for the job?
an my trucks got a NP-242 an i havnt been abel 2 find a sye kit for it an i read that the NV-241OR can replace iit with a lil mods, is this a big job or can it be done with ease, an as its got a biger rating then the NP-242, is this a wise replace?
