You could buy a rebuilt one from Cobra Transmission and just send them back your core after the fact as well -

I tried emailing Tom but I got an auto-response from Gmail that it wasn't a valid email address. Could you check and see if you have the correct email address? Thanks.

Their new OE-style driveshaft looks good, but then when I called them to inquire about the lengthened driveshaft they told me it was like $600 because it's a brand new one and not a remanufactured one. And apparently the lengthened driveshaft requires removing the transfer case to install it? Seems like a lot of extra work.
