I assume there is a conversion joint available to whatever shaft. I remember from my auto parts slinging days that they make just about any combination you can imagine.
I don't really know what to do about a driveshaft either. Haven't done much research, but having one made seems reasonably priced.

well as I normally do, I dived into it yesterday.
napa makes a conversion joint for 8.8 flange to gm, UJ355, 30 bucks.
I ALSO found out the bolt circle on the for flange is the same as my ext rear, 4.25". so woot to you for making me look.
if your driveshaft needs to be 52-53" long, you can use the 2wd 2004 trailblazer (4" aluminum, 52" long) or the stock s10 ( steel, 53" long) and then the UJ355 will set you up.
