2 piece to 1 piece driveshaft crossmember clearance - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 1972 C10 long bed with a TH350 and a 2 piece driveshaft. The carrier bearing area of the shaft is junk. Instead of repairing the 2 piece shaft I want to switch to a 1 piece shaft. The truck is stock height now, but I plan to have air bags someday. Will the 1 piece shaft clear the crossmember as the suspension cycles up and down? Will the 1 piece shaft work at stock height and lowered?
