BDS 6.5 Long Arm

BDS 6.5 Long Arm
Well here I am at the beginning phase of my first jeep build. It is an 01' Cherokee with a stock driveline and newly gone through axles with 4:10 gears and a rear Detroit Locker. I've determined that i am going to go with a 6.5 BDS long arm to accommodate 33x10.50s on Mickey Thompson rims. I am going to keep it rather modest to begin with and I understand that I will require a SYE and CV rear drive shaft. But what for the front drive shaft? Will it run well with the stock one? And what about these unibody stiffeners? Are they really necessary? I really only plan on some modest wheeling and trail riding, more of an expedition type vehicle to get out in and camp and stuff.
I am looking for any veteran input from any one that has some more experience than I do with the longevity of there lifted Cherokee.
Thanks

Those are small tires for a 6.5 inch lift. Ur front shaft will work great. Yes on sye. Stiffeners will only help the durability of your jeep. I would suggest them.
