The right U Joints for this vehicle going by vin number will not fit the driveshaft?

Took my SUV in for repairs and it is now stuck in shop mechanic test drove and concluded bad u joints. So did a replacement but now said the right u joints wont fit this driveshaft? Cannot find the right fit u joints for this truck and he ask if driveshaft was an aftermarket? In which I do not know because I just bought it last year.

I think this may be due to a difference in driveshafts. It looks like you have 3 different possible driveshafts.

2F1310
2S1350
2S1330

I attached pictures of each to try and compare them. The pictures are in order of the numbers above. It appears the first picture is the front drive shaft if you have had a 4WD so we just need to be sure they are ordering per the correct shaft.

It is not clear if the u joints are different for each one but I suspect this is the issue.

Take a look at this info and then make sure they are ordering the U joint for this drive shaft and we can go from there. Thanks
