K-series front driveshaft info needed.

[XJsavage]

Im looking for something to use as if nothing else a mock up front driveshaft in the rig. I've seen these lying around in junkyards before but until now I've never considered using one. The length is very close to what i'd need but I have a few questions: What's the wall thickness and U joint size? These shafts seem to be everywhere, is anyone using them in a crawler?

I'll post a link to the online "replacement" driveshaft since it does list applications.

All those later model GM light duty shafts have inside snap rings. As I do not know what your shafts are, I am going to make the assumption you are using a Spicer style shaft, which has outside snap rings.
