Sorry I changed logins, but you get that.
You could try Driveline Services who I think are in all states. When I had one done for another vehicle, I used a company in Brissy close to me that specialised in CVs and drive shafts called Petron.
You could try the DIY solution with a chopsaw and a welder but they have to be trued and also balanced as part of the process otherwise you will be no better off..
I think the problem is that the tail shaft lengths have been optimised in conjunction with the centre bearing position and once you lift the vehicle, the shaft assembly becomes a little bit out of phase. 20mm spacer may not be quite enough.
