Stupid Support Bearings

Okay...i absolutely hate two piece driveshafts just because of the center support bearing. I have broken so many I lost count and ive only been driving my truck for 3 years...About a year ago i installed the telescopic back-half shaft and I have still broken about 4 or 5 supports...All of my angles are right nothing is crooked, bent, etc....I do have bags on my truck but i have a set ride height that i drive at...for now lol...My dad drove the truck for 30 years and only broke one on the coil springs and i broke a ton...im sure its the way i hotrod the truck but i want to adapt the truck to my driving style lol...so i decided to buy a heavy duty support bearing but they cost too much money for something so simple so i decided to take a stab at building my own...i will install it tonight and take the truck for a spin so ill let you all know how it works out...heres a few pics of the last one i broke and the one i just made
