With that lift I'd recomend a castor correction too.  With that in mind a Cardan jointed shaft should be the only answer.  Unless you have both UJs at similar angles a wide angle propshaft will still cause the pulsing because of the high UJ angle at one end.

The back end will have similar angles at both ends of the prop, plus the prop is longer so a wide angle prop should be ok.
