So u plan on a 6 inch suspension lift, and a 3 inch body? How big of tire do you plan on running again?
(I have a 4 inch suspension and 3 inch body lift on my wheeler n run 44s)
Also, cheaper lift isn't always better. The Tuff Country lifts have the most adjustable components in them. As in, it makes alignment a breeze!
Also, if wheeling of any kind is on the "to do" list I would recommend bracing up the axle pivot drop brackets.

Unless its super low mileage, as long as the motor is out I would go and do at least a basic quickie overhaul on it (gaskets, rings and bearings) a cam and headers wouldnt hurt either

My has a 6 inch lift with stock driveshafts and I did not drop the transfer case. Go to what lift kit you want to use web site and they will usely have the instruction on how to install the lift and what is included.
You can look them over to see what else you need to get. Some do not come with the drop pitman arm, shocks, brake lines, adjustable alignment bushings and all the little extra.
