Driveshaft question.....

I have a 2006 2500HD Mega Cab 4X4 automatic. My drivetrain is vibrating, and at least one of the U-joints is starting to squeak (rear). Front shaft is shot and will be replaced. My question is: Will the one-piece rear driveshaft from a 2008 MegaCab fit my truck?? I have read that it will, and one of the posts even gave a DC part number. I can't find that particular post again, so can someone please point me in the right direction?? This two-piece-rubber-gromet-supported rear driveshaft is retarded. I'd rather spend money and fix (what I consider to be) a design DOH.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
