Default 01 XJ Bad Front Driveshaft ?

So...

I spent my Saturday cleaning my Jeep, I greased all my fittings and when I was doing my front drive shaft I noticed at the slip how loose and easy it was when I grabbed it with my hands to move it. Jeep has been making some noise that is like a 'whine' and thought it had to do with my breaks, I checked my front and rear breaks and they where clean, nothing holding up in my drums. Noise is annoying me so I took it to the corner mechanic to take a look and what he came back to me with was, Noticed that my front drive shaft was loose, at the slip witch I noticed, he said that could be the possible noise. Also that U-Joint at the yoke of the front axle is bad.

Now off topic, He said that my wheel base in the front is off, I have a 4.5" Lift, Fixed lower control arms, and stock uppers. When you are in reverse and hit breaks, it clunks, the axle has so much slop. Need advice!

Thank you all who chime in!
