I've been told that wether I level or lift, I need to replace the driveshaft.

More "Let's see what we can get this noob dumbass to buy" bullshit?

Clarification, looking at 2" level or lift, nothing extreme. And mild to medium trails only, eventually.

No, you’re fine with the stock front shaft at 2”. The need for a new shaft is more dependent on shock length than lift height. The general rule is that front shocks longer than 28.5” require a new driveshaft due to how far they allow the suspension to drop.

Good to know. Thanks. I've so many people talk about their lifts with no mention of the ds. When I heard this, I thought it seemed odd.
