the drive shaft will have some longitudnal motion - enough to get the flex discs out, if it were solid I dont think the shaft will be able to absorb the slight movements of the transmission or diff. The U joint stickiness is bad news, you need a D shaft shop to stake a new U joint in place and balance the shaft again.
