Might need the drive shaft from the 44 xj too. The 44 has a longer snout than a 35,making the ds shorter. If you already have a sye,you're good to go.

I do have a three inch lift and I can see about an inch and a half pulled out of the t case so maybe with the longer snout and my original shaft it would slide it back in a little. That would be cool.
