That'll be all you'll need! Might need a few new bolts during the process.. Definitely soak everything in your favorite rust penetrant for atleast a week before you do the lift.

I would also recommend buying at least 4 cans of PB Blasters to use on on your shakles, leaf springs, shocks, and u bolts. My rear suspension was fairly rusted (including rotted bump stops) and it took about 2 weeks of spraying before most of my bolts broke free.

If you are purchasing new leaf springs, I don't think you will need those bushings. I'm replacing mine and thery are complete, minus the bolts.

Question on PBlaster
The place where I will complete the work is about 3 hrs drive away. If I'm soaking the snot out of my rusted bolts and parts for a week prior, is it safe to drive it still?

Plan on several things one bolts being broken while trying to remove them rusted badly, so be prepared for that the rear shock uppers are really bad about that.
A new set of bump stops may be in order also.
