Question One Piece Drive Shaft?

Anyone have a one piece driveshaft in a 465/205/LWB Setup? I would like to get rid of the two piece but I've heard that no one will build a driveshaft longer than 6'.

Both my '72 with a TH350 and my brother's '69 with 4 speed (465) have a one piece driveshaft. I didn't even know that the 4x4's came with a 2 piece. BTW, they are both LWB with 205's.

Do your one piece drive shafts have a CV Joint (double U-Joint) on one end? I'm going to have a drive shaft built and was wondering if the CV Joint is needed.
