Measure what you want to use and you will see if it will work. You can fudge a bit but look before you leap.

I have measured the rear axle on a Colorado, though, and beleive the rearend might work. I don't recall the exact dimension (should have wrote it down), but I beleive it is right around the 62" plate to plate.
