Driveshaft length Question

I'm going to be installing a 6.5" lift shortly with an sye but I'm not sure if a stock xj front drive shaft will work since I have the ax-15 transmission. So I did some searching and figured out that zj front shafts are longer than an xj. So my question is can I can run a zj front shaft or do I have to get a custom one? Or are there any other options?

I have a 92 xj with an ax15 and np231 with a 27 spline Chrysler 8.25.

Measure from where the SYE will sit to the pinon yoke and then match that up with the chart. If none will fit, lengthening a driveshaft costs approximately $150.
