1/2 ton axle shafts

[1995sierraz71]

This may sound stupid but I could not find an answer. 1995 k1500 pu. 3.73. I have a bent axle shaft that has been like that since I bought the truck, but now with heavier tires, it vibrates the truck over 70mph. My question is....will any axle shaft out of a gmt400 6 lug 4x4 1/2 ton pickup/Burb etc work? Or are they different for different ratios? Thanks!

If you have a 10 bolt make sure you pull it from another 10 bolt, if you have a 14 bolt, the same is true. You could have either axle, ratio doesn't matter.
