flex is over rated, get lockers

if you want a ramp queen parabolic rears in the front ifs rears(without load leaves) in the rear + wicked shackle angle will give you as much flex as your going to get out of your lux with leaves


dont forget to lengthen brake lines, shocks etc to suit

you can keep the 2 piece shaft and solve the problem but getting a solid steel version lathed up will set you back about 200-300 as its rather hard to machine
