Default jeep xj 3" lift to 6.5"

im currently in progress of making my 2000 cherokee bigger the 3" looks good, but im wanting more lift so im think im going to do a 6.5" but im not sure what all i will need, i know im buying 6.5" leafs off rustysoffroad.com, and im also buying the 6.5" front coils off that site, but idk what else i will need to make it all work like slip yoke, control arm drop and all the stuff can anyone tell me what all i would need? thanks for your help (:[IMG]file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Owner/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/Picturez/Picturez%20046.jpg[/IMG]
