Default What would the cost be of lifting my 98 xj?

Ok so I have a bone stock 98 4d xj. I am wanting to put a 6 inch long arm lift and 33in tires on it. I am thinking there is more to it then buying just the kit right? Like mabey transfer case drops ect ... so what would i be looking at cost wise to have it done right? This is also my daily driver so it would need to be road worthy. Also whats the cost of upkeep on a rig like this, like yearly on berrings or anything that will wear? Hope you guys can help!
