if your getting the complete kit you get Panhard Rods & Adjustable Caster with it.
only other thing would be brake lines.
don't think you need to change anything else. but don't hold me to that

Thx
Just thought u might not have needed extended brake lines
Well if thats the case and i have to get extended brake lines i might as well go the whole 9 yrds and get the 80mm lift kit for the same price!!

If i went down that track 40 mm with 50mm spacers, Whats the advantage/Disadvantage over a 80 mm lift kit?
If that makes sense

I'd like to eventually upgrade to 80mm springs.
That said, I think if you want the best articulation the 80mm springs would be the go. I've just gone this setup because I already had the springs but wanted more clearance. I think running shorter springs with spacers is probably a better ride on road though. Mine flexes quite well.
I had 60mm lift prior to this setup and did not notice a problem with the brake line length although I reckon they were probably very close to needing longer ones. 80mm definitely needs longer lines, I was shocked when I saw them all stretched out when flexed.
