i have been having issues with keeping u joints in my rear drive shaft. i have been replacing them about once every two months. well the last time it broke the ears got bent and broken. i have solid axles under it from a 74 bronco and the rear yoke on the third member is the ford wide style. i was wondering how to go about getting a new drive shaft. should i get another one made or is there a company that makes them? Oh the bronco is lifted about 6ish inches with 36s on it currently any help will be appreciated thanks
 
Sounds like your pinion angle is awful, not surprising on something with a short wheelbase and a lift.

That, or axle wrap (might need a traction bar).
 
Try getting something built with a double cardan u-joint. It should help with the angles. Tapered shims to adjust your pinion angle may help as well.
