What else should I order to get ready for re-gearing

Silicone, Gear oil, lots of brake cleaner, nitril gloves (because gear oil smells). Assuming you have a torque wrench, dial type inch lbs torque wrench, impact, and big ass pipe wrench to hold the pinion yoke.

Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes. lol

Dana 44 rear, chrome shafts sitting waiting to be installed.
Dana 30, chrome shafts already installed

Ordered Ubolt yokes too after helping 2 people that broke the yoke bolts off at naxja winterfest.

Setup bearings and races. Extra shims. An extra pinion nut on either end isn't a bad idea either as you will be removing it numerous times to get the backlash correct. Soft deadblow hammer

Is this your first time? If so its awfully handy to have someone with a bit of experience around to help. Even if just for texting and some pictures to be sure all is right.
 
The kit should be fairly complete, but definitely lots of brakekleen, gloves, and shop towels will be handy! Setup bearings can be helpful if you don't have a clamshell bearing puller.
