its the steep angles on the ujoints you need to have a good drive shaft built or replace all with grease able joints and grease it lots every 1500 miles or less. A double cardian type joint would work best

Just a bad angle coming off transfer case with a lift. I just replaced my front shaft again and hope it lasts thru winter. Snapped half the cage out. Either reclock transfer case or get a custom shaft made.

One I'm thinking of is about 3/4 way down this page.
