Default Rear Drive shaft died Need help

I have a 09 X 2dr with a 3" teraflex lift and my Rear Driveshaft went at the transfer case. Please tell me what I need to fix it.I really dont want it to break again because it is my daily driver and my only vehicle. I know i need a driveshaft but which one and how do I go about ordering one. Also Can I just buy rear adjustable control arms do adjust rear axle. Im still very new to this.Thank for any help.

You'll need adj rear upper arms to adjust your pinion angle for a double carden shaft.

I checked your profile, 2-dr , right? They do make OEM replacement driveshafts that bolt up to your flanges. Or you could change the yolks out. Either way , you'll need to get adj uppers in the rear to adj the pinion angle.
Here is a write-up for the rear shaft.

The strongest option would be a double cardin with new yokes, do not reuse the factory yokes.
