Question 4" Rancho suspension lift kit?

I was thinking about installing a Rancho 4" lift kit for my 1998 2500 HD 8 lug 4x4. Has anyone used Rancho lift kits before and if so do they include all necessary hardware and parts for this type of modification? What is involved in installing the Rancho 4" kit, does it all bolt up or does it have to be welded? Are there any more parts I should go ahead and change along with the install?
Any help with these questions is greatly appreciated!

This site ROCKS!!!

I put a rancho lift on a jeep,everything was included,except longer brake hoses.Only fab work was to lower the e-brake cables at the rear axle.

Smokekiki, how hard was the install? I think im pretty mechan. inclined but i'm just not sure about a project like this. Would I need any special tools?
