Square,rectangular or those weird foreign type telescoping shafts make no difference as to phasing(timing) of u-joints. As an "example" if one had the 2 shafts slide together with NO u-joint crosses installed,then lay the 2 yokes on a table with both cup areas of the yokes sitting flat on the table then they're in phase.

I will guarantee you that if you cut off and re-weld the female part of the shafts so as they are in phase a lot or all of the vibration will go away on turns.
