Does anyone make these yet? Going with a 3.5" lift and really would rather not spend a fortune replacing the driveshafts.

Drop kits are for the rear angle which isn't a big issue on the 4dr JLs. The problem with JLs is the front output. A street only Jeep probably doesn't need one but at 3.5" even mild offroad can bend driveshaft at the output shaft.

Thanks for the info. Do they make a larger front output case yoke for the JL yet?

Pretty sure your only recourse right now is a new front driveshaft.

Even for normal street-driving? I will not be going on any trails whatsoever until sometime next year.

Street you should be fine. But get a new DS before any off-roading.
