i need a new front driveshaftas well om my lifted 2 dr x whicdsh has a torn boot
i had the rear replaced with a tom woods by my local 4x4 shop due to pinion angle n stuff and was wondering if the front was a direct bolt on and if there is anything like pinion angle or control arm setttings to worry about can it be done by someone with some mechanical skills? i did install my lift with front n rear adjustable trac bars as well as relocate the evap canister. i have a manual 2 dr x.

I love my woody shafts I have been using Woody's on all my vehicles for years and they have always served me well. Their customer service, and quality of their works are top notch.
I would be more than happy to answer some of your questions.

I hate hijacking threads, but I thought the OP may benefit from my question as well - although I'm not sure what size lift he's running.
I have a 4-door 6-spd and will be running a 3" Teraflex lift with full flexarms. I know my rear driveshaft will be fine, but I want to replace my front with a Tom Woods driveshaft. What exactly should I order? I was on the website and it looks like I need to measure and count the splines and provide them with all the details. Although I am mechanically inclined and can install a product given detailed instructions, I don't know much about the specs.
Is there a standard length for a front driveshaft of a 4-door 6-spd JK with a 3" lift kit that probably yields closer to 4" of actual lift? How about splines, joints, boots, and all the other options Tom Woods requires me to provide him with?
Thanks.
