99xj_on40s

Question for me fellow XJ owners. I was going to put a iron rock off-road hack and tap sye on my rig, it’s a 99 has 8in of lift and Has the np242 t-case will I need to have a custom drive shaft made? Or will I be able to use a Xj front shaft to make it work, or a ZJ front shaft any help is greatly appreciated thanks?
