Nope you don't need to do any of that for a 50mm lift, i have no idea about body lift.
you might need to re centre your steering wheel with the suspension lift,

i had the same setup in my old coily. Body lift goes straight in, mine required the steering shaft spacer, other then that it was easy.

a $200 for the body lift including steering biscuit and postage if you ask the right person  . I'd get longer brake lines as a matter of course so you don't stretch the old ones. Body lift is pretty simple however you'll need to raise your front bumper.
