Brake lines would be a smart idea , Adjustable track bar is also a good idea. As for the driveshaft. You may need to get a sye so keep that in mind that varies from jeep to jeep

Once you go over 3" of lift the cost goes up quite a bit over most all of stock kits that are sold with items "Not Included" with them. Several of those items have been listed above but not all for sure to do it "Correctly".

The better kits do include most all of the parts for the job except for an SYE when needed but you do pay for them in the total cost.
