The rear brake line is long enough the fronts work or at least mine did if you relocate the mount down a little bit.
sway bar links, you can get longer ones but before you bother with that make sure you will even want to run them.
I know my Ex handles better And the ride is definitely better without sway bars but I have a good deal of time and effort invested in shock tuning, but even without that it is good to start a new suspension setup without them and add as required.
Remember you have dramatically changed corner weights, center of gravity, roll center and leverage points of your vehicle, do not assume it is going to be like it used to be or even like somebody else’s with a similar ride height but different spring, shock and tire package.

front 25”
rear 26”
at those measurements you might be able to get away with using the stock length KYB Monomax, But I would make some careful measurements first.
