76' first style front drive shaft

My 76 blazer has the first style front driveshaft (clamp type), I want to swap over to the later flange type driveshaft. I am assuming that the front output shafts on all the 205s are the same? I would be swaping an output yoke from an 80' 205 onto my 76' 205.

Re: 76' first style front drive shaft

I found this info regarding the NP205 in one of my parts books.

Early 77 and previous years had a 10 spline front output shaft.

Later 77 and newer had a 30 spline output
