What kind of shocks are you going with?

1. Longer shocks for obvious reasons.
2. Longer brake lines or extensions

I think that is a lift you will be happy with. With the control arms and adjustable track bar it looks to be a pretty complete kit other than the above mentioned parts.

Oh, and...

3. Transfer case lowering kit to correct driveline angle (if it doesn't already come with the kit).

What size/kind of tires are you going to get?

im not really sure what tires i am going to go with when i get the lift. i want a tire that i can use for offroading but still be ok for on road driving. it dosnt have to be a great onroad performer but just allright. so i dont know yet

Well I would recommend a good mud terrain tire like BF Goodrich's MT km ot Dunlop Mud rovers. I have the BFG AT ko (all terrain) and they are absolutely excellent tires, but they won't self clean mud from the tread like a mud terrain will.

The single flex Skyjacker kit is a great lift, however, another kit to consider in the same price range is the Teraflex long arm 4" kit (~$1600 @ http://www.rubiconusa.com/). There are several performance advantages to a long arm kit, however the disadvantages would be that it would be a more expensive installation and would be harder to convert back to the stock configuration.
