The trans yoke provides more than enough slip for suspension travel, and you can't have more than 1 slip in a one piece driveline. It will fall out.
I thought the rear shaft was the problem when lowering & that the slip joint needed added to it....

Maybe the rear shaft just needs shortened after substantial lowering?
