I saw this and had to throw in a couple bits of info that might help here. First one is that the drive shafts that had u-joints in them were from the "L" or "LS" SVXs. The "LSL" and later, the "LSi" SVXs had the supposedly smoother, quieter CV type center joint in the shaft.
The second one is that even the CV type joint is seperable, it just takes more work to get it apart. I posted a rundown of what the drive shaft shop told me they did to mine in my 5-speed install thread.

Hope this helps and I too am interested in the outback driveshaft info.
