Driveshaft help!

Hi I have a 2010 wrangler 2dr standard with a 3.5 inch lift and I noticed it started making some noise so I looked underneath and I noticed this on the rear driveshaft

that's grease pushing it's way through

You are going to need to adjust your pinion angle if you go with an aftermarket double cardin shaft.

Ok how do I do that? Kinda noob with pinion angles

Do you have adjustable control arms? You will need to adjust the back for sure to get a straight line from your pinion down the shaft.

I will be getting them very soon ordering with the driveshafts

As mentioned, you are really in need of a new u-joint style double cardan drive shaft and a set of adjustable rear upper control arms to set your pinion angle. Step 60 in this write-up below will give you some instructions on how to do that.
