Remove it all together and source a single piece driveshaft from a 2001+ truck

Thanks for the response. As I intend to keep the truck for another 75K this makes sense.

I replaced the one in my 95 and I found out that if you dont line up the univeral joints it will vibrate like the transmission is tryin to come up and shake your hand.

By lining up I mean getting for ex. the side of the univeral joint with the C shaped spring pin, get it lined up to where all of those are on one side, if that makes anysense I just cant put whats in my head on paper, its too scary.
