I'm in the same boat. Same deal, installed a 2.5 w/ caster bushings and I get a slight deceleration chatter at hwy speeds. So a new DC driveshaft will help?

Y'all may check the OAL of the front drive shafts to make sure there's enough spline engagement at the slip yoke.
newb here, OAL?
have you removed the front shaft and used an angle finder to compare the degree of tilt on the pinion shaft and t-case output shaft? they should be exactly the same after the lift and caster correction. If not, you will get a vibration and that rattling noise.
Overall length.
Check to make sure it doesn't look like this.

See the cleaner area on the outside of the slip yoke, that's how much further mine stretched (again, mine is like 2% of the lifted 80 s on mud)
Any other thoughts before I make a $500 gamble on a DC shaft?
