Choice 4  Go back to a two-piece shaft, Run a CV on the 2nd piece so you can tilt your pinion up to keep it out of the rock. Fab up a new mount for the center bearing and run either a pillow block bearing or get a billet aluminum bearing carrier from Hendrix Motorsports. You cut the bearing out of a stock Toyota center bearing.

I have a 90 ex-cab with a 123" WB. I went to a one piece d-shaft, after bending three of them I put some thought into it. I went back to the 2-piece with a pillow block bearing and have not bent one since.
