He is already running 37's, and I have 37's with a stock drive line.

No need to change out any drive line parts other than the gear and pinion. You dont even need that but you would lose major power not to mention fuel. By the way, 35" is to small for 8" lift.

At the cost of feeling like a needle dick! Not worth it. Just bank the lift kit for a bit until you get the tires because if for some reason things don't work out for ya, your gonna feel like a needle dick selling it too....lol
