It shows at the bottom of that webpage the other parts that may be required. I would put new knuckle joints on anyway and maybe new cones if yours are old and knackered.

i did mine in a night, cut the old trumpets up they will fall out, wind the hi-los to the smallest hight (if that makes sence) the rears go in easy , the fronts where a bit stubbern but went in without a compressor ... also bought mine here .. think i payed £50 for the set + knuckles iirc
