as cdowns might have been getting at, with the stock suspension the control arms came up to the center bearing. this caused the same piviot point. you said you have a 4 link in your truck so your new piviot point might be different then stock. so when the suspension goes through its motions it pushes the bearing twords the trans or front of the truck. you might want to look into setting up the right piviot point, and i have only heard of people with short beds going to a 1 piece driveshaft. also welcome to the board. i hope this helps
