if you have a 2-door, yes, you will need to get a new rear drive shaft sooner than later. if you have an automatic, you will want to get a front as well.

i run a set of 1350 JE Reels on my white JK and 1310 Coast on my orange. a lot of people will try and tell you that tom woods is the best but really, they're all pretty good. i got my coast shafts from northridge4x4 and if you go that route, i would recommend them.
