Question regarding 3"suspension lift

[Herculean T4R]

I'm leaning towards buying 3" BOSS suspension lift kit from Toytec.

Are following items necessary along with the lift kit?

1. extended brake line
2. sway bar adjustment brackets
3. Parking/Emergency Brake Bracket
4. adjustable PanHard bar

Should I replace the front and rear sway bar bushings and endlink bushings while I am installing the lift? Thinking of buying the replacement bushings from Energy suspension...Does anyone know the correct part numbers?

Thanks and apologies in advance if this topic has been discussed before.

You'll be fine without the accessories you listed. The only one out of those i would get would be the adjustable panhard but definitely not a requirement.

1. Yes and No. With the 3" ome coils they really dont flex enough to cause an issue. But for piece of mind if you bend the brake bracket down it gives an inch or so of more clearance. For more piece of mind get the SS extended line because with the age on our vehicle SS lines are nice to have.

2. Front sway bar can be removed or use disconnects. If you keep it connected and flex her out you can break the stock front links. The rear can be left the same but will really hold you up when flexing on the trail. You can use disconnects here, or extended links, or like me I use SS lift brackets which allow the use of the stock end links.

3. The parking break bracket with the lift will cause the line to get really really tight, I just unbolted the rear bracket and its lose now and still functions.

4. With 3" lift the stock panhard causes the rear end to push a little out to the passenger side. I have ran almost 4" rear lift with no issues on tire wear or highway sway. IMO not needed.

^^^Agreed....IMHO you need the extended brake line, because if you of some reason end up drooping a lot in the rear. You will pull that brake line tight, trust me I experimented before putting my lift on.....the rest is kind of up to you. User preference.
