Rear shafts

Rear shafts
Ok, I've checked everything and done every test and I'm pretty sure that my rear shafts are bent. Both rear wheels are wobbling slightly(though the right one wobbles more), which causes the car to vibrate at high speeds...
I wanted to ask you guys which shaft to buy for 5.9 slt+ 4wd.
I've found these, are they the correct ones?

I don't know what happened but it's been like that since I bought the car, must be the previous owner...
It gets worse as it gets hotter. I can feel the car bouncing when I slow down after driving a while. Can't feel it when it is cold. Also the vibration increases as I drive it.
Tried balancing and road force balancing several times before. No use.
It's not the wheels because I swapped them several times and nothing changes. I even checked the wheels with my eyes myself on the lift while my mechanic was spinning them on 4x4 mode. I've noticed that front side is smooth as butter while the rear ones are wobbling... Swapped the front and rear wheels, nothing has changed. Though it's a slight wobbling, not noticable without close examination... But it's there, that's for sure.
After that I made my mechanic check the bearings to see if they were bad... he said bearings are good, no play on them, tight... That only leaves one option, which is the shaft... But I have no idea why both of them are screwed instead of just one...
