Welcome to CF! You want one from a XJ with the AW4/NP231 set up.

I just ordered the HNT from IRo and asked them about the driveshaft. They are sending me the stock XJ front driveshaft and are assuring me that it will be 100% ok being that I am at 5 inches in the rear. Since my front driveshaft is garbage I figured I will try the one they are sending me and if it doesnt work for some reason I will use it to replace my front one and go get one from a ZJ that is longer to use on my rear. We will just have to wait and see.

Thats what I am hoping for. If it works fine I will call them and see if they could sell me just an extra driveshaft so I could use for the front. The one I have wobbles like crazy.

it will only work if your taking a front driveshaft from an auto xj and if your xj is auto, this will not work with a manual jeep due to lengths of the shafts.
