2pc driveshaft to 1pc

Like to do away with two piece driveshaft in Panel and replace with one piece.
Looking into it only negative was alignment trans to rear and vibration at high spd. The later is bigger concern since I have been know to multiply spd limits.

Have no problem with going bigger diameter shaft if does away with carrier bearing , bracket and all the extra to have two piece. Has to be less weight and probably less rotating weight in long run. Plus front shaft would have to be shortened for transmission swap 3spd to 4 spd auto.

Wondering who here has done so and thoughts either way.
