Silly question but I don't recall anyone discussing this. Has anyone upgraded the u joints and other components on their stock 2 piece drive shafts instead of going to a 1 piece? I made the upgrade to the 1 piece years ago but was just wondering if there were any companies that provided this option to someone that wanted to run big power but wanted to stay with the factory appearing 2 piece setup. Thanks in advance.

While upgrading to a "better" joint isn't a bad idea, in many cases the failure mode wasn't rooted in joint failure but rather the tube yielding/twisting.

I think it would take a lot to break the joints, where it will not take a lot to twist the shaft itself. I wouldn't dump any money into the stock 2-piece
