I believe you will still want to replace your front Driveshaft for a 4 inch lift for all years.

I am biased to Rock Krawler since that is what I have but I hear/read good things about the EVO setup. I don't believe you can go wrong with either or.
On the 12's you need to replace the front shaft even with an exhaust modification...
