Driveshaft Toast?

Driveshaft Toast?
This is a continuation from the thread I made yesterday, but more specific I guess. https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=456879
I took the transfer case down today, and it appears fine, but the driveshaft doesnt looks so lucky.
Tcase:
Output shaft:
The silver stuff looks like grease...
Driveshaft:
Think I should be looking for a new driveshaft?

Yeah i would def. change that drive shaft. Go ahead and get yourself a nice one. If your lifted...which it looks like you are. I would take another measurement to make sure that if it needs to be longer to eliminate a steep drive shaft angle. And check your rear axle if it needs to be shimmed to eliminate such problems down the road again. It seems that the u-joint that you had in there didnt last long from the way your talking.

This was my angle after I did my rear
I have 5" superlift springs and the pinion angle looks pretty good to me. I want to get a new driveshaft, I was just hoping to get one when I wanted it, not needed it haha.
I think I might be able to score one cheap from a salvage yard or something for the mean time.
Dennys driveshaft comes highly recommended, right?
