I let a buddy use my truck while I was out of town and the Driveshaft and yoke fell off and when it was towed they were missing. I need to find a replacement at a junk yard for now just need to know what I can use.

They can be, it depends on tranmission. count the number of splines and if they are the same you should be fine. For safe measure check the u-joint diameter OD and the length of yoke.
