the kit comes with everything except the tires.
the kit includes Front coil springs, front lower control arms, transfer case drop kit, front track bar drop bracket, swaybar links, brake line relocating brackets, 4 RC Hydro 8000 series shocks, and rear add-a-leafs and shackles or you can upgrade to NEW rear leaf springs.
But i added a control arm drop kit so that it was only at 3in lift to keep stress off the arms. but It is not a necessity man

No, drop pitman arms dont work and most of the time make bumpsteer worse.

Well I'm glad you helped clear the air. I'm still trying to decide which kit I will get too (since the RE is out of my price range). I know lifts are constantly being discussed, but I think we can all agree that there is a lot of misinformation out there (e.g., I knew a guy who, forums, internet, sales people, etc.). I have benefitted greatly from the information on lifting hidden in this forum, but I seem to get more and more confused as I read sometimes. Bottomline is (for me at least) that lifting can be really confusing with all the additional parts (SYE, trackbar, etc.) if you don't have a good working knowledge of vehicles. I seriously need a remedial course on suspension and steering and such. Argh.
