Default New Driveshaft?

I have a '90 cherokee, on an old 4.5" rough country lift. Plan on getting IRO's 6.5" long arm kit this summer. Question is:

Do I need to get a different driveshaft for this lit as well?? I already have a custom Tom Woods for it now.

Thanks.

depends on how much slip the driveshaft has. only way i know how to figure that out is to throw the lift on and take measurements.

like jackbob said - it depends how much skip TW built into the driveshaft that's on there now. My hunch though is that it will be ok. Call Tom Woods and ask them

Problem about that Dukie, it was already on the rig. May have to check if I have the paperwork for it but I'm sure I do the PO is very thorough.
