Ya, I said F-it and I am also going to a two-piece after talking to the DriveShaft Specialist. Anyone on here using their setup and have some pictures?

Pretty easy to install? I gotta get under my truck and mock up the cross member so I can get some measurements.

Finally got my 2-piece installed today. I got everything including the crossmember from DriveshaftSpecialists. I had a question about the angle of the shafts though. The way I have it set up now, both the front and the rear shafts are at about the same angles. Is this correct? Or should the front shaft sit level with the trans and then the rear shaft should have all the angle?

Basically your trans and front shaft should "flow" into each other smooth. Then the same with the rear end into the rear shaft. No drastic drops or raises in the shafts compared to trans or rear end.
You can get away with adding 1-2* more downward angle to the rear end to allow for the shaft and pinion to be inline with each other under WOT conditions
