Looking for some advice regarding build
You will sit high with that lift until you get the weight of the bumpers and winch on it making the drive line angles even worse. If you are not wheeling the jeep then I would not be so concerned about the drive shaft , but it will at some point fail. Check your local drive line shops for driveshafts, sometimes you can get better pricing and service when going local. Driveshafts are all basically the same parts just put together. How well a company balances them is the important thing.
I'm a little late to the party, but I agree here. Slapping lift on with 33s or waiting will just be subjective to taste on appearance. Really not a big deal either way. Regear can wait. Also agree to not do a rear bumper with a carrier. If you are set on carrying a spare around do a quality hinge carrier for the tailgate.

You can install it yourself, but you may have a local shop that can build you one. You would need to take your Jeep to them so they can measure what needs to be built (after your lift and bumpers are installed, and the spare on the Jeep). You can use a company out of town but it's nice to support local.

I’m a little late to this… I’m new to jeeps as well, but not builds or projects. I have the exact same Jeep, and just went through this. I choked at the price of lifting a Jeep these days and missed the last MC sale, haven’t ordered anything yet, still just running stock, and will wait until everything is on the shop floor to start.
I’ll post up my parts list for you, might give you some other ideas.
Good luck with it.

- MC Game changer. 2.5. RS shocks.
- Tom woods 1350 dc drive shafts. Front and rear.
- MC Differential skid plates
- 4.10 gearing (Subjective and I’m not set on this yet)
- ARB lockers, front and rear.
- trussed axles, C’s, front and rear.
- 33” tires. Toyo MT probably or Cooper STT
- Wheels, what ever the best deal is at the time. Steel. Off set as required.
- Spare tires. This is subjective, to be honest until I read this I didn’t realize people were running without these days. I’ve always run with two spares (Trucks). I run in some remote places, and have seen double flats - cut tires. On the Jeep, I’ll run one spare with patching kits. Again, very remote locations in northern Canada, you’re on your own. Ymmv on this one.
- Warn 12k winch. I already have one sitting here.
- Bumpers, skid plates, spare tire carrier, d rings, roof / canoe racks, All custom. I like fabricating, so I’ll do my own, nothing too fancy, think utility. Can’t comment on who or what to source there.
- Various other items.. Sat phone (iridium), CB, etc.. This part is personal, and I already have it sitting here.
Good luck with it.
Don't waste the money on trussing a factory axle, C's yes but there is very little benefit to doing trusses unless you need it for new bracket placement. Put the money towards a new axle housing if you don't think yours will hold up. I would also not install a locker in a dana 30 other than a lunchbox type as the money would be better spent on an aftermarket axle. Skip the 33" tires and go right to 35's.
