Strange your front shaft is too short, I'm running a stock one with almost 8", did it with stock axles as well. TC drop is often just a bandaid and doesn't always solve your problem, I'd invest in a SYE. Let's see some pics of the front axle and see if you have other issues causeing the drive shaft problem.
