I'm going to piggy back on this thread since I'm in the exact same boat. First question, how long will the stock drive shafts work with a 4.5" lift? I do hit the trails but my plan was to upgrade in stages. Do I need a front more than a rear?
Second question, with a light gas pedal, how long will stock axles live? My friend is running 35" muds on his jeep and with regular maint has not broken anything yet but 1 sample isn't enough for me.
Third question, how bad is the rubbing with a 4.5" lift and 35s? I don't want a body lift for now and will upgrade to high clear fenders later if needed.
I'll have more questions soon, I'm getting ready to do this!

LGR you say SYE and driveshaft...meaning rear driveshaft? I thought the front was the problem shaft no? I'm new to Jeeps, I hate not knowing much!
