mazda driveshaft
i have a 1998 mazda b2500 2wd manual trans reg cab 6 1/2 foot bed
when i first bought the truck it drove fine i went upstate to college and when i had the truck in the shop my teacher noticed a loose part on drive shaft after some research i found out that the part was on the slip yolk and the rubber had rotted causing it to bank around and the truck drove fine after i took it off but now the truck rocks side to side when slowing and it has caused the alignment to go off and the whole truck shakes at 65 mph i would like to know if there is anyone who can help me out with my problem

Your alignment problems are unrelated to the driveshaft, and I'd bet that the shaking is from worn front end parts. Get the front end looked at. It sounds like it's getting to the point of being unsafe.
