Will a Driveshaft From a '05 CCSB fit a '08 CCSB?

[duramaxdiesel]

I just went through a snow bank and twisted my rear driveshaft on my LMM. A buddy of mine has a spare one off of a 2005 LLY. Will the driveshaft fit? Both are CCSB.

Thanks!

I think the size of the joints are different. If you swap the rear yoke it will fit.

Oh crap, really? Oh well, I was hoping it would just swap in. Thanks for the info:thumb:

As said the older driveshafts are 1410 and the LMM's are 1480.

I think the lmm take a 1480 or 1485 joint and the 05 are 1410. Some of the classics had 1480 joints as well. I could be wrong but I think it was the manual trans trucks that did.

Is it possible to change the joints instead of the yolk? I appreciate the help.

No because the caps are bigger around on the 1480/1485 joints than the 1410's

1485 joints- Caps measure aprox 1.4" with a span of aprox 4.4"
1480 joints- Caps measure aprox 1.4" with a span of aprox 4.2"
1410 joints- Caps measure aprox 1.2" with a span of aprox 4.2"
