Default Lift question

If I were to lift my jeep 3.5", what all would I have to change/replace? Like brake lines, drive shafts, all that stuff

You should be ok with most stock components. It might require an SYE and a new driveshaft but other than that it should be fine. You may not even need the SYE.

I just lifted mine via a Rusty's 3" kit. Just my .02, if you're gonna lift it, go to autozine or somewhere and get a rear brake line for a 96 Wrangler. They're about 3" longer than the factory XJ line.

Also, I didn't do a TCase drop on mine, just 3 degree shims. It does have some driveline vibrations, so I ordered an SYE today.
