I need to replace a u joint on a 2005 kia sorento lx two wheel drive. I was told that the only way to replace the u joint is to replace the entire driveshaft. Is this correct information?

I just had my univeral joints replaced in my 2005 Sorento 2wd and they where pretty simple. Did not have to replace whole driveshaft.
