Maybe not, I called the guys at Burnsville, they've done quite a few of these lifts and don't replace the driveshafts, and even in their Hemi powered JKs. I've had this lift on mine for a few months now without changing driveshafts and all is good so far, knock on wood.

I cant wait to see the pics...
Those who have the long arm kits here on JK forums, dont seem to be very active and post up pics, at least not very good ones that is

Jason......do they (RE) sell the parts separately? Or offer a long arm conversion kit for the JK's?
I bought the 3.5" Superflex kit from you and now Ive been thinking about upgrading
All I would want and need are the arms, arm mounts and cross member.
Then later on I might switch out for the 4.5" coils/shocks

Thanks for the info Jason...
I was hoping it was going to be a little bit cheaper though...
Doesnt matter though, because its looking like I may have to wait till after x-mas to do the upgrade :sad:

Yo' Eracer!

I've got the 4.5 RE kit and I'd be happy to post any pics you like.

You name it and I'll try to get them on this weekend.
