I was going to have it as a spare in case I ever broke one on the trail

Can you use an aftermarket drive shaft without adjustable control arms ?

Some of the aftermarket driveshafts on Northridge say they fit 0-6" of lift.

On the rear of a two door you should really have adjustable rear upper control arms to correct pinion angle first

That's what I thought plus front lowers?

Front lowers if over 2.5 lift is really needed anyway

The sport and rubicon driveshafts are the exact same assuming you have same engine and transmission combination as you buddy.

Sorry brain wasn't functioning. The rubicon driveshaft is slightly shorter due to the longer d44 pinion and they have different part numbers. As a trail spare it would likely work as the slip yoke would make up for it. I know we put my Rubicon axle in my friends sport and he used same front ds. Never gone other way. Sorry
