I'd be using hilux driveshafts and drilling the transfer case flange to suit.
custom bar work, 4x4 parts, trailers, anything out of steel/alloy :D

None. Only WT flanges are compatible with Hilux.

oj - if the angles are fine on the front shaft (normally the problem with SPOA with correct caster on the front end) then it will be OK IMHO.

I don't think I've ever seen a driveshaft snap. I've seen the yokes smashed from bad uni's/too much angle though.
