It don't look like it but is it 4x4? And you can fit 31x10.5's on them rims with out much rubbing. You should beable to fix that by replacing the lower control arms with WJ?, control arms. Looks nice

It's fine we were all there once this is a lower contol arm:
It only rubs on full lock (when the steering wheel is turned almost all the way to the left or right).

Search and you will find the answer to your ?. A short answer is that if you go with a 4.5" rough country lift kit (I have this lift on my Comanche) it comes with most very thing needed. You may have to replace the front brake lines but that is the only extra bit you would have to add.
