By shimming the rear axle only you should solve 90% of your problems. A buddy of mine raised his carrier and shimmed the axle, he was running a 5/7 drop on ECSB. You are trying to achieve the same u-joint angle on each end of the shaft.
Try a search for driveshaft angle on the web.

yeah thats what im thinking.ill know more about it after i measure the tranny output shaft tonight. im not sure how far up i will be able to adjust the driveshaft carrier.
from what i understand is i need atleast 1* angle between each pinion and the slip yoke with 1-3* on the pinion below the rear portion of the driveshaft.
