Ticking noise from driveshaft after repair

Good news, found a used one at the local yard for $75. I'm going to replace the Ujoints and carrier bearing. I might do the cardan joint on this one as I don't know the original mileage.

Thanks everyone.

@Mr Badwrench
The used driveshaft I got was loose like you said earlier. It had ever so slight bit of play and made a clunk when I moved it. I put the new carrier bearing on so I snuggled it up good.

 

Anyone have a photo of a good one for comparison? I have no idea what that's supposed to look like.

 

That tube should be round and a little longer.

 

I wonder if you buy a double card an CV head from Dana Spicer and only use the ball section and joints if it will fit.
