Sounds good to me! Good luck. One of the best mods you will do
Edit: maybe camber bolts if it gets out of spec and you don't point the arrows in on the gt500 mounts. I think you're good otherwise

I just installed the strt's myself and I love them! Good luck with it!
The only thing on your list I do not have are the relo brackets, but the other 3 things definitely helped with traction and wheelhop. I need to pick up some of the brackets though.

Adorable pooch by the way.
Depending on your goals for the car, you might consider going with the Koni Sports in stead of the SRT's, Sports are adjustable and are a better overall shock which will enhance cornering and assist in durability of a lowered car.
i was looking at the adjustables. Strange makes good shocks.
Honestly if you don't plan on tracking the car I wouldn't waste the money on the sports. Not sure how adjustable shocks makes them more durable with lowering springs, the strt is designed to operate in a large range from stock ride to being lowered 2"+. If you car is mostly a street car the strt is more than enough.

Regarding the Koni srt vs the adjustable sports, the whole point is the adjustability, the SRT does not allow you to adjust firmness to the new spring.
The Sports allow you to dial in the ride and cornering of the car to the new spring rate etc.
Bottom line is if you are staying stock buy the SRT shock it is a very good STOCK replacement shock, If you are lowering your car and want to ADJUST it to YOUR driving style, the Sports are a better choice.

While it is recommended as a stock replacement, it's performance goes far beyond the scope of the OEM capabilities.
Not to be an *** but have you driven a vehicle with the strt?
No I have not driven a mustang with SRT koni's, and I agree that they are very good shocks. But, in getting back to the OP post, he asked if he was missing anything. My response is simply to help him make a choice which I clarified by disclaimers of how would be using the car and his goals for handling with his suspension set up.
My theory in life when buying upgrades for anything, get the best you can that will do everything you think you might want to do, that way you only do it once. If the OP doesn't plan to autox or carve roads he will probably be very happy with the SRT's, his choice.
