Re: 2 piece drive shaft
If your are missing they probably got all bent up when the carrier bearing was replaced in the past. They do keep alot of the road debris and dirt out of the rubber on the carrier bearing and keep the driveshaft in place when the bearing falls apart. Do you absolutely have to have them no but they do serve a a purpose.

Re: 2 piece drive shaft
I have a 1968 C10 that used to have those "cups" on the drive shaft support bearing but the are long gone. We have a local driveshaft shop and I had them rebuild and balance my driveshaft nearly 20 years ago and it has been trouble free since. My "cups" were damaged by a younger me and were deleted.
