Chevy 3600 with Blazer Rear End....help!!

Found a newer GU6 coded blazer rear end that I wanna install.

My question revolves around the driveshaft/ rear end mating. I assume I will use my driveshaft. Is there a universal joint that attaches my driveshaft to the Blazer rear end?

Your running the SM465 transmission still?

Reason I ask is because if you have to get a drive line made (like I had to), just cut the end off the driveshaft for the rear end and bring that.

I am running a Ford 8.8 out back so I had to have it mate up with my NV3500.

If that is the stock 3600 4 speed then yes. Enclosed back to hanger bearing then open.

My stock rear end is HO52 correct?

So I need a conversion joint to go to a HO52 to connect to the driveshaft, and the Blazer?

Is the Blazer u Joint a 1310?
