The carrier bearing you are talking about allows for plenty of movement, trailing arm trucks Don't need much slip as the rear end doesn't move straight up and down, it swings in an arc very simmilar to the driveshaft.

I build one piece driveshafts for swb and lwb trucks like ours pretty frequently and have never had an issue. I would never attempt modifying a shaft at home especially the way the guys on hot rod tv did it.

Remember to have your driveshafts ballanced guys and gals. Its a lot cheaper than a new trans tailhousing.

That certainly makes sense.
