another sye and driveshaft question

First off if this is a repost dont freak out I couldnt get the search to find anything useful. Okay on to the question, I have a 4" super lift in the garage waiting for tires, an sye and a driveshaft. I plan on getting the sye and driveshaft from tom wood. If I install it now will it work on my stock height 2000 Tj until I could afford tires. Woud like to save the little extra space I do have in my garage and install it right away. Thanks Josh

You will need a new driveshaft now and later.

Just to be clear, you need to install the lift before you order your driveshaft. Tires can wait, you'll just have to drive around with 4" of lift and donuts. The correct length of your driveshaft will change from stock height to lifted height. Tom can make a rough guess on driveshaft length before you do the lift but installing a too long driveshaft on a stock height vehicle could cause it to bottom out and do damage to your transfer case.
