good drive shaft?
Im doing the RK 2.5" Max Travel with RRD 2.0's and 33's on a 2014 2dr. What is a good front drive shaft? Should I just go ahead and do the rear too?
Im thinking an Adams 1310. Does everything you need to install it come with it?

Nice choice on the lift, I have the 2.5 also but I have bilsteins for a 4" lift on my '12 4dr rubi. I went with a J.E.Reel 1310 shaft and haven't had any problems yet..even with 37's. The good thing about Reel shafts is that they use neapco u joints instead of chinese spicers joints. Im also still running the factory rear shaft with no problema yet after 29k miles

I wouldn't be so quick to discount Spicer joints just yet. Dana/Spicer has always been a solid brand and I'll continue to trust until seeing otherwise. Some of the shittiest vehicles I've driven were American made....(sadly)
I have a 1310 Coast up front and 1350 Reel rear. If it's a 2dr, I'd say you could get away with a 1310 in rear. Frankly, if you're doing any offroading, I wouldn't trust the stock shafts with or without a lift kit.
My Coast uses solid joints (stronger than greasable) and has no access to grease the CV ball. The Reel has greasable joints (but 1350 size) and a zerk for the CV ball.
Good choice on the lift. I have an RK 3.5 I couldn't be happier with.

Each manufacturer has solid or greasable versions. Solid are stronger due to lack of grease channels, but you can periodically grease the others. That said, you can go a long damn while on non-grease type before they need attention. .
