Did you ever run any of the AEV lift in conjunction with the Clayton? The AEV kit is a 2.5-3" correct? They say there is no need to replace drive shaft. Do you feel that is correct?

I was thinking about a frankenlift. Aev springs and Clayton arms? Questioning my thoughts though.I did not.
I always ran the jeep as an AEV creation. At 2.5" lift I do not believe it requires any driveshaft modifications. THe decision point seems to be around 3" and at 3.5 and beyond with a properly designed kit that allows you to use all that extra height to flex, I feel you would need to change out the shafts
Take a look at the actual build thread and you'll see an elongated drive shaft boot shroud which was probably caused when I unhooked all the AEV stuff and allowed the axle to droop enough to bend that part.
