It sounds like its going to be a hard fix. I hope not though. All the info is great thanks.
Yes, you are wrong. Manuals have two piece, autos one piece.
There are some technical difficulties with a double cardan joint, mainly related to the angle at the other end of the drive shaft which is beyond the limit needed with a double cardan joint. So, possible but difficult and if you solve the problems you no longer need a double cardan joint.
Some members are reporting success with a single driveshaft conversion but I have some doubts about this at full droop with a lifted suspension. If it were that easy Misubishi would have done it long ago. The centre bearing mount mod seems the best and is probably a lot cheaper than new a driveshaft. As far as I can remember it's had a 100% success rate. Even without it it doesn't take much weight to drop the body to the point where there is no longer any shudder.
