Default Lift question please help!!

So i have an 2001 cherokee i just bought and im having it lifted 6.5" long arms and regeard to 4.56 with 35s. Now with that being said thats all ive bought and ive read that i may need cv drive shafts and a sye kit. I know it has a 231 tase in it and its stock to my knowledge besides that. So what ALL will i HAVE to buy to make it just pretty much road worthy at least for a month or so until i can do those other upgrades or are they required? All help is accepted and appreciated thanks! And im new to cherokees so tips are wonderful

I bought a new driveshaft from an eBay vender (Dave's Driveshaft) as I remember for $199+ shipping. It has the better joints in it and I have been well pleased with it.

I bought the same SYE kit on a special deal that a member here posted a link to for $99 with free shipping, I jumped on it as I knew that I would need one soon. Good thing I did so they sold out in about 15-20 min. on them and the guy that posted the link lost out on the deal also. The price you posted is about the normal price for one I think and they go up from there for different brands.
