Default Front Driveshaft

I have asked before but never recieved a answer. My front driveshaft is at a crazy angle from 6in lift and wore the seal out and slung grease every where. What can I do about the angle it will just break the seal again if I replace it and no one around here sells the part but ebay.

I'm thinking a Slip Joint Eliminator might be the part you're looking for?

I looked up that joint eliminator and i don't think thats what i need, i think a front driveshaft with cardnal u-joints or how ever you spell it is what i need?

Double cardan joints I believe is what they are.

You can use axle wedges to shift the angle of the axle which will lessen the severity of the angle of u joint. you should then have it realigned.
