Default 3.5" lift questions

I have a 2010 standard shift. And I'm putting in a 3.5" lift. What will I need to look at for drive shafts??

Nothing...
As I've been told.

I have the same set up as you and I'm installing my 3.5" Rough Country on the 21st. Waiting to hear back from Discount Tire on my 35" MTR's and 15" MB72's (hopefully tomorrow).

If you're doing your lift AFTER me feel free to message me after the 21st and I'll let you know how it went. Let you know any bumps I hit along the way. :-)

Im using stock shafts until they calf out on me. Fronts fine, keep an eye on the back and try to adjust your rear pinion so the shaft is more straight with the diff if you know what I mean.

I agree with the guys above. cross your fingers and run the stockers until they quit, you may be suprised how long they last. you can get angled spacers for the rear springs that will rotate the rearend up slightly and decrease the shaft angle. front adjustable arms or the aev drop brackets will also adjust your front.
