driveshaft ?

I've got a 2 piece swb driveshaft. Damn carrier keeps falling apart. I've got a 2.5/4 drop. Is the new angle of the driveshaft screwing up the carrier? Do I need to shim the rear axle?

Also, a local drive shaft outfit said that they can't make a 1 piece for my application as the length of the driveshaft requires a certain diameter tube. This tube won't fit through the crossmember. Is this true? Does anyone else have a 1 piece driveshaft in a SWB truck? I'd like to chuck my 2 piece. I think this is the 4rth or 5th carrier that's detonated on me over the years.
