Default Stock Driveshaft on 2 door with lift question

ok, got a 2 door 6 speed with the RC 3.25 kit. Got 3.25 in the front and right around 2.25 in the rear of lift. I have enough money saved up for new rear driveshaft and upper control arms. I have had the lift on for about 7 months and about 7000 miles and so far so good. the problem is that I need other stuff now. Since my DS is still kicking after almost 7,000 miles is it safe to assume it is going to be ok for while longer or should I hold off on other mods and keep the money for the DS upgrade.

My winch cable needs an update (current one is unsafe/kinked badly) and I am thinking synthtic and I need a tire carrier at some point in time, my 34 inch is on my tailgate and that is making me nervous. Also need diff covers.

opinons and suggestions greatly appreciated.

Your rear drivetrain is more important than the other stuff, if you have the money now, get the ds and ca's. If your luck is like mine, the damn thing would go out the day my other stuff came in. Check that rezeppa joint for spitting grease at the Tcase.
