5inch lift, front drive shaft not long enough

i just put the chevy lift on my truck, and i put my rear springs to the front, i think it got me 4 or 5 inchs of lift but my front drive shaft isnt long enough and if it was its not flexible enough. waht is the the anwser?, do i buy farmer U joints and weld together? or is there a better and cheaper way to do this? "82 sr5, 2 1/2 inch body lift, 4-5 inch suspension lift, 31 inch tires, blue and rusty as hell"

Search for square driveshaft. Or bring your shaft to a shop and have it lengthened with a long travel slip yoke
