drivline angle

I local parts store told me that my driveline has to be under 3 degrees, and mine is at 5. I thought it had to be under 6, could to be why i am snapping u-joints? How hard is it to install a shim kit? That solves the rear u-joint, but the one on the rear of the ransfer case, has a larger angle than my rear one, it has not snapped, but i did break the little straps which hold the u-joint in place. Someone told me to get a h-joint? I have never heard of one before, but what do they do?
