Drivesahft pulling out!!!

hi
am lookin for a bit of help or advice on the issue of my passenger side driveshaft which pulls itself out the side of the gearbox when the wheel is pushed further up into the arch by uneven surfaces as it has been lowered atleast 80-100mm so it doesnt really take much an really it is jst an inconvenience to stop an pop it back in and i dont really want to raise the suspension because it would spoil the stance,looks and handling of the car.
i wondered if maybe an astra shaft or something would fit as it needs the extra bit of length but still be okay an not butt out when turning and under suspension movement, since the shafts just now are running at such an angle which is causing them to pull out by being, effectively, too short.
anybody else had this problem and know a remedy?
please help!!!
