if i get a 3-3.5" lift instead of a 2 inch lift...would that be asking for a drive shaft replacement? Rough Country has a few nice kits im looking at, Teraflex has thier 2.5" kit, and zone offroad has thier 3" lift. so yeah...options

You have a 2 door, right?

a 3+ inch kit might be asking a little too much out of your factory drive shafts...

Especially if you have an automatic too.

Don't know much about zone lifts but depending on the other mod weight you add, a TF 2.5" and a RC 3" will net you the same overall height. And while not immediately you would want to save up for some driveshafts in the future. May not be an immediate necessary.

2 door manual...but yeah, i wouldnt like my driveshafts to snap

so 3 inch is highest i should go? because i dont really plan on changing the driveshafts until later on...but now that i said that, they will break tomorrow. I also dont want the 33-34"'s i have now to look small.
