Well again the grand Cherokee has longer ones. If you figure out the length you need there's a list floating around of the sizes by year.

When i replaced a D shaft that broke, i went to my local pick and pull to get another, I found that there were XJ/MJ shafts that were all different lenghts. you could try and find another D shaft out of the cherokee thats all little bit longer in your local jy.

If you get vibes as need a sye http://www.4x4groupbuy.com/store/adv...aft-p-115.html this is the best deal i can find for a complete sye + driveshaft.
