Basically what he said, except I have 4.56 ratios and lockers, SYE and I braced the rear diff. Extended brake lines are inlcuded in kit, and the shock mounts were moved during install.
If you planning on getting to that stage, either you need to save and do it all in one go (probably cheeper on labour) or do it in stages like I did. I went SYE, then diffs, then suspension. Has taken me 15 mths.

Rides great, better than before and the kit includes new disconnects.

I know that I am jumping on a very old post, however Jaffas I am glad to hear that the XJ Blackie still lives, with some awesome improvements.

Your XJ rocks, when you coming back to Melbourne to play in the Mud. I am sure Dan and I can show you some good tracks.
