Default SYE kit compatabilty with xj front drive shaft

Ive heard that an xj front drive shaft can work with an sye kit. I know there are a bunch of different lengths, which one would work with an auto np231 and the 8.25" rear i also have 3" aal and 1" shackles for roughly 4"s of lift. Im hoping to pick one up from a salvage yard soon any info would be helpful

Auto or manual transmission? I have a manual tranny 231 Nd a 8.8 with like 4 in of lift and I'm running a front ZJ shaft from a V8. Manual trannies are about an inch shorter than autos which means that a donor xj with an auto will have a longer front than a manual donor. And your jeep if an auto will need a shorter rear than if its a manual
