i got 4 " lift springs and shocks for my 97 wrangler but i dont know exactly what else i need since its my first time lifting it. I dont really go wheelin much.. maybe once or twice a month and all i do is kick some mud around, so i dont think i need anything too serious. I am thinking ill have to do a transfer case drop, rear sway bar links, rear track bar bracket, and a drop pitman arm. does that sound right?
 
don't install that drop pitman arm without a drop trackbar mount unless you like bump steer

you'll need new front sway bar links at that height too, unless you don't run one. if you don't wanna get a new front track bar you can always redrill the axle side mount so that the axle is centered. not gonna be as strong but it's free :)

at 4" too you may be out of the TC drop's range of effectiveness without a huge drop depending on what axle/tranny combo you have. mine only has 2.5" susp lift and i needed a motor mount lift and TC drop to get rid of my vibes, 4" is venturing into SYE and CV driveshaft territory
