Default What ill need for a 3 inch lift

I'm thinking about getting a rustys 3 inch full leaf pack kit for my 2000 jeep xj sport with 208000 miles on it and 4.0 and I am wondering outside of the lift kit what other components I will need to or should replace ? Any help is appreciated fellas.

Okay, okay, I'll say it.

This has been covered a million and a half times, Google things before starting new threads.

With that being said, you'll need atleast an adjustable track bar. If you wheel it with no swaybar you'll need longer brake lines.

That about covers it unless your going with larger tires then a 15x8" wheel with 3.75" BS and a gear change if much larger tires are used.

Adjustable trac bar is a must and most likely a sye. But like mentioned before it depends on your vehicle. I used TC drop kit and it wasn't enough to eliminate the vibrations. Also you can get away with the stock rear brake line but highly recommend changing it to the correct length.
