Default Best SYE kit

Found this online, but it doesn't say it's for the XJ. I know it should fit, but I need a seasoned member to say yes so i feel better.

Also, is there a place that's cheaper? Prefer the AA kit over the RR?
And I don't have the ability for a hack'n'tap so that is out.

JB Conversion is my fav. although the AA also gets the job done well. No matter which you choose you could read their website just for the information.

Question

Do I have to put an aftermarket driveshaft with any sye kit that I put on?

Yep. Or a stock front driveshaft works for a lot of people.
