Thanks! Its a $80 lesson learned!
I got the driveshaft shortened by about 20 inches and installed. I checked the U-joint angles afterward and to my surprise I didn't have to change any of the shims and the angles got better than before. With a .5 degree on the front, 1 degree in the middle, and .5 degree at the rear. I could believe it so I went through the whole process twice.
Then the E-brake strap needed to go as it no longer had anything to bolt to. (4th photo)
In the last photo the GV switch panel. Double sided tape is holding in place for now as I'm not satisfied with how it looks.
