Have a look on http://www.4x4bits.co.nz. They have a kit for the job but you might still be better sourcing the parts separatly
My method
Replace rear springs with 50mm lift springs. If yours is lwb use heavy duty.
Once fitted measure your rear shocks They should be just short enough to retain the springs but not excessively so if they require you to lift the axle about 5 to 10mm thats about correct More they limit travel less they dont retain the spring
On the front adjust the torrsion bars so the front is at the same hight. No need to replace shocks. Only replace the torrsions if you have a winch etc
You may want to do a ball joint flip but this is less critical on that susspension
Get a wheel alignment
enjoy
