with 4" of lift on a 2-door and automatic, yes, you will need to get new drive shafts front and rear. without them, your front shaft will make contact with your tranny pan and tear off the spline shaft boot. in the rear, the angle of your shaft will be so steep that the cv boot will be in a constant state of pinch. over time, this will cause it to fail and that will lead to the cv joints failing as well.
