You'll need an adjustable panhard bar. Rear shocks will need to be shorter, get some good gas ones if you can. I don't know if anyone makes a shock relocation kit for the 60. If they do, put one in. They move the shock so it sits straighter, giving better dynamics in the up and down motion.

I look at suspension work as a place to do everything right the first time, it saves you a lot of time and money in the long run.
