The new shaft is steel and 3" in diameter. Truck is lowered 5.5" in front and either 7" or 8" in the rear. But your shop isn't wrong. The factory crossmember won't let you swap to a 1 piece. You will need to get another crossmember or make one that has a little more room for the driveshaft to move. I basically made one very similar to the porter built crossmember.
