New shocks, extended brake lines (or relocate them), new LCA's, new trac bar (or redrill mounting hole). I think thats it

If i am not mistaken Rough countrys shocks come in 2 sizes to them... 3-4.5 and 4.5-6 or something like that. So you probably dont need new shocks.

But as Dynamite said, brakelines, adjustable trackbar, control arms (lower).

something to mention.. longer sway bar links or disconnects.

Maybe some adjustable uca's to dial in the alignment.

Oh and Bigger tires to fill the larger gap in the wheel well.
