yes its to stop axle warp/ tramp. shouldn't stop your car flexing if its made right. put up a pick of the other end where its mounted to the chassis

A- its not a gay arm......needed to stop axle wrap....pppfffft gay....some people....but the major prob i can see is someone has pointed the pinion to the t/case.....big no no....

Is this because of the UJ angles?

Yup, input and output should be at the same angle.

What about using a double cardon joint? I suppose you would still have the same problem though.

Is it mounted to the chassis by what looks like a spring shackle?

if you dont have the output of the Tcase joined to the pinion with a driveshaft you wont go anywhere when you put it in gear and let the clutch out, this can also affect your fuel economy
lots of 4wd's have the same in the front too
