Jeeps running stock driveshafts with 4" lift.
I would like to hear from people who have lifted their JKU's and didn't change out the front driveshaft. Just curious how many miles people are getting out of them after the lift before they fail.

3.5" as well. Never disco'd as I haven't wheeled hard enough to need to, but I've had my lift on for 20k miles on no damage yet. I do plan to pick up some driveshafts eventually because I know these will go eventually.

I'm at 3", wheeled disco'd regularly, 22K Miles so far. I'll be curious how long it lasts, but may just do a repair kid like:
Crown Automotive - Drive Shaft CV Joint Repair Kit - Fits 2007 to 2015 JK Wrangler and Rubicon,2-door models - 4WD.com
Works for the 4-dr too. Much cheaper.
