i think that is a fairly complete kit minus the two notes they say below it...

Quote:

• Extended brake lines are recommended.• Sway-bar drop brackets are required for trucks equipped with front sway-bars.

Do not get blocks is what they say with Jeeps.
If you do get blocks with your Ford, then make sure they are solid blocks of steel, aluminum will NOT hold up. I had aluminum shims that broke into pieces after just a few months on my Jeep!

I am very happy with Rough Country & their customer service.
JCWhitney sells their kits for less than they do theirselves, lol.

Ditto...luckily mine exploded as I was pulling out of the shop. Had it been on the road, I probably would have lost control and wrecked.
